How to Support

remember as you give that 100% of all gifts given are sent to Sierra
Leone. We are completely self-supported here and use none of the
money donated to run the business of the ministry in the States.

- checks written to Jonathan's House. Tax deductible. Donations
/ checks for support should be written to Jonathan's
House and sent to:
- Jonathan's
House

care of Karen Boland

- Marshalltown,
Iowa 50158

Supporting
a child
Supporting a child at Jonathan's
House for Orphans means that one child will have the food,
education, medical treatments, and shelter necessary to
thrive! Most
importantly, supporting a child means that a child in Sierra
Leone will have a connection to a person who will pray for and
care for them! The
greatest gift outside of salvation that these children can
receive is the knowledge that they are not forgotten.
A simple family picture from America of someone who
cares becomes a prized possession to the supported child.
The blessings for the child and for the supporter are
many. You can
communicate with the child through others who are travelling
to Sierra Leone and send pictures and small gifts. As
you receive pictures, updates and notes from your
child, you will soon see how God can use you to provide hope to the hopeless!

What's
the Current Monthly Need and Where Do We Stand
Right now we need $6900 per month to
operate. One third of that is for food for the kids at the home. One
third goes to salaries for 40 staff. The last one third goes for
church planting, street kids, upkeep on the home, vehicle
maintenance, evangelism, and the destitute program. We are currently
at about 50% of our needed monthly support.
