Kigali, Rwanda Central Africa

5. How much is postage for a letter to Rwanda?

Airmail letter post costs 84 cents to anywhere in the world. Postage for sizes other than a standard letter can be determined by visiting www.usps.com

6. What kinds of gifts can I send to my child?

Send something very small to your child because large, heavy packages are extremely expensive to ship. Gift ideas include t-shirts, small toys, light jackets, watches, photos, school supplies and toiletries. There is a maximum size box that you can ship to Rwanda. Visit your local post office to find out the restrictions or visit www.usps.com

We ask that you would send nothing with a value over $50 US dollars. You may also send additional money and things needed by the children can then be purchased in Rwanda for them.

why does my pledge progress statement show I am behind?

12. Why does my pledge progress statement show I am behind?

In 2008 ANLM went to a pledge progress statement instead of a receipt process so that donors sponsoring a child would know how much is needed to keep their pledge current. On the first of each month the amount of the sponsorship in our system becomes “due” for that month. So we do not want this to be a negative but a way a donor can see where they are in their sponsorship commitment. We have seen a drastic drop in the amount of people who were not getting their child’s money in each month. If you have further questions please email Jennifer@africanewlife.org.
