LILLE FRO FOUNDATION

Child Sponsorship

Give the Gift of Education

Education has the potential to change the trajectory of lives for kids living in poverty and is a basic human right for any child.

For $1450 AUD a year you can make a lasting difference to a child living in extreme poverty in one of the remotest parts of the world.

When you sponsor a child with Lille Fro, 100% of your gift goes directly towards supporting our Little Seeds Program, providing community-based education to disadvantaged children from our supported villages.

About Little Seeds

Little Seeds is a holistic education program designed around anti-poverty targets aimed at achieving universal primary education for boys and girls alike, no matter where they live.

We recognise differences and understand the hopes and needs of nomadic communities which move around the plains eight times a year, differ greatly from those challenged by high altitude and snowed-in for months at a time.

Little Seeds is designed to provide students with everything needed to get to school and get the most out of it.

Our Approach is Simple

To learn effectively, children need to be nurtured both inside and out. This means having a roof over their head, being well-nourished and feeling safe in a warm and engaging environment in which they can thrive.

Little Seeds removes the barriers of entry into the education system for disadvantaged children from low-income communities. Our aim is to level the playing field and support these children in reaching their full potential. 

When you sponsor a child, you are helping to bridge that gap. Providing everything needed for children to get to school and receive an education that’s both meaningful and respectful of their rich cultural heritage. Starting with the furthest behind first.

How Sponsorship Works

Working alongside local partners and government, we have identified low-income communities in extremely remote areas where the traditional education model is not working effectively. This is largely due to isolation, geography and the ongoing challenge of attracting qualified teachers to the region.

We don’t build schools. Rather we partner with existing schools which are reputable and have a track record in delivering a comprehensive syllabus while at the same time, maintaining a strong focus on preserving and cultivating local culture, traditions and language.

Sponsorship with Lille Fro generally includes: placement at a residential hostel, three nutritious meals a day, access to basic healthcare and of course schooling.

Be Part of the Lille Fro Family​

Your donation supports the Little Seeds Program across our partner schools and hostel network.

Each year you will receive a letter from your sponsor child together with school reports, drawings as well as updates.

We also encourage you to write letters and if the opportunity arises, to take a trip to Ladakh to meet your sponsored child in person.
