How did we calculate these costs?
Costs are based on a conversion rate of 1560 shillings per US dollar. Because exchange rates fluctuate we used 1560 as an average and realistic rate to cover costs.

In the case of extra funds do to exchange rates fluctuations money will be used to provide a holiday meal for the families of the sponsored children at the church once a month.
