Education Sponsorship

If you give a man a fish, he will be full for one day, but if you teach him how to fish, he can feed himself many times.....

       Together, we can forever change the future of an orphaned child!

In China, children from orphanages are able to go to school through high school on government funding.  Few orphans, however, end up passing the rigorous examination required to go to college, and even if they do, the orphanages don't have money to pay their way.  When they leave the orphanage, their future is less than promising.

One of the goals of The LOOK Project is to assist orphans who have worked so hard and earned a place in college by offering a chance to further their education and change the course of their life. 

We are delighted that we have been given the opportunity to assist 17 deserving high school students to attend college and seek a career.  Many of these students say they want to work hard to repay society for the kindness they have been given.  All 17 students have been specifically selected by the CCAA (China's government agency that manages orphan affairs) based on the superior academic performance, to attend the Civil Affair Management College in Hunan.  Clicking on the link at the left, entitled "Students", will bring up a picture and information on each student needing your support.   The cost of the three-year college program for each student is about $1,800 a year per student, in equivalent U.S. dollars.  This includes tuition, books, and room and board!   Such a small price to give these hard working young women and men a future.   

We are seeking sponsors for these students, in an education sponsorship program that will be co-administered by Chinese Children Charities division of CCAI.  One family or a group of families, or a church, etc. may choose to fund a given student - - or donations of any size can be applied toward these students education in general.    If a person or group chooses to sponsor a specific student, we will send them more details on that student's history and then subsequently their report cards, periodic updates, and a translated letter from the student. 

If you would like to sponsor a particular student, please send an email to  Information@LOOKProject.org and specify the particular student you wish to sponsor.  We will then send you information on that student, and contact you to set up a schedule for your donations to their fund.

If you can not afford a full sponsorship, but would like to give a loving donation, please click the link below or visit our "How to Help" page.   Please list 'LOOK EDUCATION FUND' on the online donation form  or on  your personal check to insure your funds are applied to this program rather than to another LOOK project.

Together, we can change the lives of these children, from their youth to adulthood by simply caring and believing in their future. 

 Please help spread the word on the LOOK Education Fund and let's send these 17 young people to advanced studies and into a brighter future.    We are confident these first 17 students will help pave the way for other orphanage children.
