How to donate to Champions Orphanage

Last week we talked about Pastor David B. Chesoli, who runs the Kenyan orphanage and school that Angela is alleged to have been stealing from. We discussed the possibility of getting in touch with Mr Chesoli in order to donate to his charitable endeavours, and said we’d post back here when we heard from him. That day, we emailed Mr Chesoli:

Dear Mr Chesoli,

We recently learned that one of your donors, Angela Power-Disney, had stopped sending money to your orphanage and school, after our blog did a series of articles exposing her for stealing from the money she was raising on your charity’s behalf. We understand that she is now under investigation by the Irish police.

We were shocked to hear that she had stopped donating, and would like to help you make up the shortfall in funds. We feel very strongly that the children you serve should not suffer just because of one person’s dishonesty.

We have several readers who would like to help you in your very worthy work, and we have recommended to them that they get in touch with you via email to find out how to donate.
However, it would be even better if you could give us instructions, which we could then publish on the blog so that our readers could send money to your charity directly. As soon as you let us know how best to send donations, we’ll be happy to let our readers know how to help you.

I should say that we would strongly prefer that our donations be given anonymously. Many of us have been threatened by some of Angela’s friends, and having our names known could create problems for some of us and our families. We hope you understand.

We know that Mr Chesoli has very limited access to the internet, as he uses only a mobile phone to get online, so we assumed it might take some time for him to respond.

However, very late on Sunday night he posted in Hoaxtead Research‘s comments section:

We did resend the email, and here’s his response:

Thank you so much for resending this mail. It’s in the trash messages but I have received it.  Actually,stopped her support since May. All in all,am glad to note that when one door closes, God opens another one.

Thank you for leading by example. May God bless you more abundantly.

Well,I understand what you noted that readers to send support anonymously though I don’t know if my two preferred methods would be convenient.

Money could be wired directly in to bank account or send via money gram.

If I may ask,will I be writing you to let you know whenever money is send as well give thanks for what is received or which way? Who will be receiving my report on the progress?

In a separate email, Mr Chesoli sent his banking information.

We’re reluctant to publish it here, as we’re not sure whether this would open him up to potential online scammers, but anyone who wishes to donate should let us know, and we’ll forward you the information. You can get in touch with us via our usual contact page.

In response to Mr Chesoli’s question about letting us know when money is sent, we’ve asked that he update us from time to time, and we’ll keep a running tally here on the blog. We’ll be sending our first donation this week, and we hope that many of our readers will follow suit.

Together, we can help ensure that Angie’s dishonesty doesn’t hurt the children in Mr Chesoli’s care!
