Signature Program
The Child Sponsorship Model
Developed in collaboration with Help a Child (HaC), RLDO's child sponsorship model uses representative “child ambassadors” as the face of fundraising for a wider community development need — going beyond individual child benefit to lift the community around them.
The program was piloted in two kebeles of Dale and Wonsho woredas, Sidama Zone, and is now qualified for scale-up to wider areas.
