The money that is raised goes directly to the charities that we support. With start up and administrative costs donated by Amanda Tapping and Damian Kindler, all of the money goes to the children. Sanctuary for Kids has chosen the Nepal Orphans Home and Watari’s TTIP1 and TIPPY Programs in Vancouver as the first charities with which to launch the foundation. In addition, we have sent funds to Haiti through Save the Children Canada.

Money raised for the Nepal Orphans Home will contribute to the opening of a new Papa’s House in Kathmandu, and will support five of the girls living there. The Sanctuary for Kids NOH Capital Fund will go towards building the first building on the planned campus for NOH. Money raised for the Watari programs will provide apartment starter kits for homeless youth and homeless parenting youth. Save the Children as of March 5th had been able to help over 500 000 people with relief, providing water, shelter, hygiene among its myriad of supports to the relief effort. They have now opened their first temporary school and plan to open over 300 classrooms in upcoming months.(For more info on the charities...)
