Tuition Classes and Computer Schools Project

We believe that education can change lives and break cycles of systemic poverty.

Tuition Classes

Children will usually succeed in their High School studies if they have a solid foundation in maths and literacy established while they are in primary school. To this end HOHI supports many tuition classes for primary school children from disadvantaged backgrounds. These classes are taught after school by trained teachers, 3 afternoons per week, for 1.5 hours per class. Students are assessed and their progress is monitored. We are very encouraged by the results.

Computer Schools

In an increasingly competitive technological world, we seek to equip children from disadvantaged backgrounds with effective computer skills. HOHI funds the set up and ongoing support for many computer schools targeting primary school pupils, and these classes are held after school, 3 afternoons a week. Trained teachers take the children through a curriculum that ensures they have basic computer skill competencies that prepares them for High School.

FAQ

Why donate to HOHI?

HOHI is managed by a great team of volunteers and has only one part-time paid office administrator and one part-time project manager. With low overheads of 10% for administration and 7.5% for compliance, HOHI ensures that 82.5% reaches the children and women in need.

HOHI also provides the possibility of contact with your sponsor child through letter writing or a video connection. Some sponsors also join a team that visits the various projects.

Would my donation be tax-deductible?

Tax deductible receipts for gifts of $2 or more will be issued by Global Development Group for GDG/HOHI partnered projects. Excess funds may be directed to another approved project activity.

Homes of Hope International is a partner for Projects in India, Bangladesh, and Indonesia, with Global Development Group (ABN 57 102 400 993).

Won’t we always have the poor with us? How can my donation possibly make a difference?

The problem of world poverty is enormous and can often seem unconquerable. Looking at the overwhelming nature of world poverty can be discouraging.

However, by approaching the problem one child at a time, lives can be saved. By sponsoring a child today, you are giving hope to one person, helping take away their suffering and offering them a better life. We change the world one person at a time.

How long will my child sponsorship last?

Children will remain in a HOHI sponsorship programme until they turn 18, or are adopted, or until we find foster care for them, or until they graduate from college or with other qualifications and can be employed.

We understand that sometimes the financial situation of a sponsor changes, and they are no longer able to continue sponsoring a HOHI child. If your financial situation as a sponsor changes, we ask that you contact us as soon as possible.

Can I correspond with my sponsor child?

Your letters are most welcome. Please contact the HOHI office for more information if you would like to write a letter to your sponsor child.

Aren’t I already giving to the poor through the taxes I pay to the Australian government?

In 2026–27, the Australian government will spend about $5.2 billion on overseas aid. That’s around 63 cents in every $100 of the Federal Budget, or about 0.17% of Australia’s Gross National Income (GNI). The internationally agreed target is 0.7% of GNI, so Australia gives about a quarter of that and ranks among the lowest of the wealthy OECD donor nations.

Even if the government met that target, it would not be enough to end poverty. We need your help to break the cycle of poverty.
