The Chioldren of ARSF


WE ARE FORMING PARTNERSHIPS all over the world with people who care about African children who yearn for a bright future. We are looking for people who are generous in heart and spirit to help these children find hope as they seek better prospects for themselves, their families and their country.


The children of ARSFWE INVITE YOU to explore this site to see what we are doing at the New ABC Divine Foundation Primary School.  So many possibilities are coming to fruition because of people like you who see what a huge difference you can make with your caring and sharing.  A little goes a very long way in this part of the world.  Won’t you join our efforts?


Thank you!
