Jamalyn Williamson Joins staff (14 July 2008)

FHM’s long-time sponsorship coordinator, Jamalyn Peigh Williamson, moved from volunteer to FHM staff member this month.   Jamalyn is a perfect fit for her new role as Fondwa Project Manager as she and her husband Dave lived for 2 years in Fondwa after they both graduated from Duke Divinity School.  There in collaboration with the Sisters, they worked with the children at the local school and got to know their families, and also spent lots of time with the youngsters at the orphanage.

A key part of FHM’s strategic plan in the Fondwa community is to have sponsors for all 550 children at the school.  The current FHM sponsorship program supports 230 children.

A monthly gift of $25 provides a child with five meals a week during the school year, a contribution to teacher salaries, regular anti-parasite medicine, daily vitamins and an annual medical exam.  Sponsors receive pictures of their child and regular updates on their progress.  To contact Jamalyn and sign up to be a sponsor, email her at JP.Williamson@familyhm.org.
