SHAMIDA PROVIDES HOUSING FOR ORPHANS AND VULNERABLE CHILDREN. MANY CHILDREN ARE ABANDONED DUE TO POVERTY OR BECOME ORPHANED DUE TO THE SICKNESS OF THE PARENTS. WHEN THIS HAPPENS, THE CHILDREN WILL BE BROUGHT TO SHAMIDA. WE PROVIDE FOOD, SHELTER, CLOTHING, CARE AND MEDICAL CARE (IF AND WHEN REQUIRED). ALL THIS COSTS HOWEVER, WE BELIEVE THAT THESE BABIES/CHILDREN DESERVE TO BE LOVED AND CARED FOR FREE FROM ANY HARM OR WORRIES. THE NUMBER OF BABIES/CHILDREN IS INDETERMINATE AS SHAMIDA SIMPLY HELPS WHEN IT IS NEEDED. THESE BABIES/CHILDREN ARE FROM ALL WALKS OF LIFE SOME AS YOUNG AS A FEW DAYS OLD, SOME 15 YEARS, SOME WITH SPECIAL NEEDS AND SOME WITHOUT. HOWEVER, THE OLDER CHILDREN WITH SPECIAL NEEDS REQUIRE MORE CARE AND THERAPIES ON AN ONGOING BASIS. 0 50650 SHAMIDA PROVIDES BASIC MATERIALS, INCLUDING SCHOOL UNIFORMS, SHOES, PAYS THE ANNUAL FEES AND ALLOWANCE FOR TRANSPORT FOR CHILDREN UNDER THE AGE OF 18 YEARS. WHILE THE SCHOOL FEES FOR LOCAL SCHOOLS IN ETHIOPIA ARE NOT EXPENSIVE, AS COMPARED TO THE WESTERN WORLD, THE MAIN PROBLEM WITH MANY CHILDREN IS THAT THEY CANNOT PHYSICALLY GET TO THE CLOSEST SCHOOL. WE UNDERSTAND THAT SCHOOLING IS A LUXURY THAT MOST OF US TAKE FOR GRANTED, AND HERE AT SHAMIDA WE ARE ADVOCATES FOR AND BELIEVE THAT EDUCATION IS THE KEY TO ENDING POVERTY. 0 2058 52708 KAREN KENDALL TREASURER 2.00 0 0 0 GILLIAN MCNALLY VICE CHAIR 2.00 0 0 0 ANDREA ROUGE SECRETARY 2.00 0 0 0 AMANDA LOPEZ DIRECTOR 2.00 0 0 0 NIKITA SAKAAR DIRECTOR 2.00 0 0 0 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 KAREN KENDALL 199 QUEBEC ST UNIT H DENVER CO 80220 8472196771 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 NONE NONE 1 X 143725 178168 200612 122330 93277 738112 143725 178168 200612 122330 93277 738112 738112 28 28 738140 1.00000 1.00000 X FORM 990-EZ, PART I, LINE 8 - OTHER REVENUE DESCRIPTION: INTEREST INCOME.
