Kanha's Circle of Friends: The Monthly Giving Society of Handicap International

Monthly giving is an effective and cost-efficient way to support Handicap International programs.

Fifty cents a day doesn't buy much.

But, when you add it up, that's $15 a month. Fifteen dollars means the world to a child like Kanha, who lost her leg when the unexploded bomb her father found detonated. Handicap International was there to help Kanha stand tall again with a prosthesis that costs as little as $35.

A small monthly contribution can go a long way. In only two months, 50 cents a day allows Handicap International to buy a new pair of crutches for a landmine victim. In a little more than three months, these donations allow us to equip a landmine technician with the tools needed to clear a field of mines.

By giving just a few dollars a month, you will join a very special group of people who stand with the thousands of children like Kanha.

These children need our help. Every six months, they need to be fit with new prostheses. Your monthly contribution means they'll never be without them.

Kanha's Circle of Friends donors are Handicap International's most effective supporters, providing us with reliable income that bears the lowest administration costs. In turn, we can focus our energy on supporting children like Kanha.
