This summer term we are thinking about our friends in Ethiopia at the Stand by Me Bethany School. Each Shellingford Primary class is having a different fundraising event and the money we raise will be used to help provide for the daily food, healthcare and education of these amazing children across the world.
They have been rescued from extreme circumstances, some are orphaned, some abandoned and all living in extreme poverty but they are just like us, full of fun and love but simply because of where they were born, do not have the same opportunities as us. That's why our fundraising will bring hope and friendship as we encourage them to become everything God created them to be.
Stand by Me rescues kids from extreme circumstances, then provides the care, love and attention they need to thrive. We care for over 3,800 kids across the world, from Myanmar to Colombia to Ethiopia. No two are the same, some are orphaned, some abandoned, some abused or living in extreme poverty, so we take care to meet each of their individual needs from food and healthcare, to loving parents and quality education, enabling them to reach their potential, stand on their own two feet and become who they were created to be.
