While on safari I was transferred to a safari camp near D'kar Botswana. As is the case with all African safari camps there is a campfire where everyone collects for "sundowners" before dinner in the "boma". Afterwards everyone gathers back to the fire and will sit around and discuss the day's sightings and generally visit with everyone at the lodge or camp.
On the second evening a lady and her son joined us. Soon a discussion began about who they were and what they were doing in the area. She and her son started telling us about a children's home that she was building just a few kilometers from the camp. Her son just graduated from University in Texas. As we talked, they mentioned that they needed an American non-profit entity for fund raining in America. I asked if we could visit the project and it was arranged to go there the next day at lunch time.
The buildings were of excellent quality and the project was about 80% completed. I promised to look into what could be done to set up a non-profit company when I returned to the USA.
A few weeks later my estate attorney and I set up the Kalahari Children's Home Foundation, now The Milagro Charitable Foundation. We began raising funds for support of the Botswana Siyiapei Home in Kenya, Africa, and The India Children's Ministries in India.
Over the years we have been able to provide funds for the general support of the Homes and even purchase a bus for the Home so that the children in the area could be easily and safely transported.
Today we continue to provide whatever support we can to these Homes.
If you would like to participate in this project, we invite you to donate to a Home by designating your donation to any of the two funds of your choice.
