THE RAHULA TRUST

(Child Sponsorship Programme)
Registered Charity No: 1075742

The Rahula Trust, a fully-registered charity in UK, to raise funds to sponsor the education of some of the world's poorest children. Donors to the Trust come from many religious and social backgrounds, and children are selected for sponsorship regardless of their faith, race, sex or nationality, the only requirement being that they be poor but academically gifted.  

Today, half of the world's poorest countries are suffering, or have just emerged from, serious conflicts. Children, women and elderly people are 10 times more likely to be victims of conflict than soldiers. Millions are forced to flee their homes. At present, there are over 30 million refugees and they are among the poorest people in the world.

We all want to live in a peaceful and stable world. Without peace and security we cannot eliminate poverty. It is for these reasons that The Rahula Trust has set up for children in need. This is an ambitious project, but it has small beginnings.

The Rahula Trust already sponsors over hundred children in Sri Lanka. Now having proved so successful, the Trust is to expand to other countries such as Tibet, Burma (now Mynamar), Thailand, Bhutan, India, and Nepal. But to help others we need your help.
