2009 Coins for Kids Project
We are pleased to present “Project India – Rescue, Foster Care, Education” as our 2009-2010 Coins for Kids project. Offerings for Project India will assist missionaries Clark and Jennifer Jensen (co-founders of Global Family Care Network) in establishing a refuge center for children in New Dehli, India.
A Refuge Center
is a holistic approach to assist families caught in the web of poverty and exploitation. These centers are located in the center of economically depressed areas that are high-risk for abandoned, orphaned, and abused children. A Refuge Center’s primary purpose is to provide a safe haven for these children who find themselves in desperate situations. These centers also provide shelter and training for ‘fatherless families’… widowed or abandoned mothers of small children. Finally, a Refuge Center serves the community through a variety of community outreach programs including small medical clinics, nutritional programs, and vocational training.
Child Refuge
The long-term goal of Global Family is to see every child placed and cared for in the context of a family unit. However, until these children are placed in a loving family, the Refuge Center provides for their immediate needs including medical, hygiene/manners training, literacy assessment, counseling and legal processing.
Widowed Or Abandoned Mothers
Another common occurrence resulting from extreme poverty is a significant group of mothers with small children who find themselves alone and without means to provide for their family. The Refuge Center provides a place where these mothers can be protected and provided for as well as equipped to find employment that will re-establish them in the community.
Clinic
Many of the families in these communities lack access to basic medical services. The Refuge Center clinics have a specific goal of providing treatment and medicines for common, preventable and treatable diseases.
Nutritional Program
On occasion, there are very desperate situations, in pockets of these slum communities, for which we provide food staples and supplements to widows and disabled people who are unable to care for themselves.
Vocational Training
A significant need among families who have migrated to large cities is to help them develop skills that will allow them to integrate into the workplace. The Refuge Center provides a place where NGO’s can conduct vocational, small business, and literacy training.
How You Can Help
Funds collected for Coins for Kids this year will go toward the building of a rescue center in the New Delhi slums. Missionaries Clark and Jennifer Jenson are ministering to these children in New Dehli and working to provide foster care and education for the children on the street. The rescue center will provide a home for abandoned women and their children, nutritional food, as well as education for other children living in the slum area.

What is CFK?
Coins for Kids is the missions arm of Girls Ministries. Each year the national Girls Ministries Department, in cooperation with the Assemblies of God World Missions and Home Missions, selects a missions project that specifically affects children. Projects that the Coins for Kids fund has assisted include providing translation of the Girls Ministries curriculum into Spanish, HealthCare Ministries, playground equipment for the Native American Fellowship, House of Grace orphanage in Thailand, a bus for the choir at Hillcrest Children's Home, Mexico street children, equipment for the outreach of Inner City Church of Minneapolis and Chicago City Church, God 4 Girls ministry in Juarez, Mexico, the Hagar Home Maternal Center in Romaniam, and the Bolivian Hope Center.
Girls Ministries partners with the Boys and Girls Missionary Challenge—BGMC. The Coins for Kids offering received during the Nationwide Girls Ministries Sleepover not only benefits the national missions project but also contributes to BGMC when mailed to the national Girls Ministries Department.
