How to Donate

I have mentioned several times before about getting involved in helping some causes here in Kenya. My work's website has recently added a DONATE option under "Quick Links" at www.ografoundation.org You can donate securely through an organization called CafAmerica that operates a website for donating internationally to non-governmental organizations. OGRA Foundation tries to respect donor-intent as much as possible so if there is a specific project you would like to contribute to (ie. the orphan feeding center) please indicate that.

Unfortunately, it appears that CafAmerica won't let you donate unless your donation is over $500. So at this point, I don't recommend using CafAmerica unless you plan to donate over $500. If you ARE interested in donating though, please contact me and I can help you find the most appropriate way for you to donate.

I am also working on a project raising money to buy bicycles for our Community Health Workers (CHWs). The CHWs work in very rural villages and perform outreach / home-based care for HIV/AIDS patients on anti-retrovirals. They do a lot of education and help the patients adhere to the complicated anti-retroviral drug regiment. 98% of our CHWs are themselves HIV positive. It would be very difficult to ship a bicycle from the States so we are asking people to donate money. You can make checks payable to OGRA FOUNDATION. Two family friends will be coming to east Africa around Christmas and can deliver any checks to me. If you are interested and would like more information, please contact me directly.



As always, if there are any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
