Adoption
- How it works
By adopting of one of the children from Holy Family Care Centre you become one of the structural benefactors of the centre. You will provide the Centre with a fixed contribution for a garanteed period of at least 5 years. This contribution will be assigned to one of the children of the family, for which this this child will receive some extra's (like clothing, toys or school materials). But not too much, because we want to avoid too big differences between children and/or spoiling.
The most important thing is, that your contribution we be of structural help for all the children living at the centre. - Which contribution
is adequate?
Our indicative reference is € 25,- per month.
Referring to the explanation above, this means that any amount (higher as well as lower) will be very welcome! - How do I tranfer money to Education Fund Holy Family
Care Centre?
Your monthly remittance has to be made to our bank account:NL90PSTB0004792828
BIC /SWIFT CODE: PSTBNL21STG Education Fund Holy Family Care Centre Ofcolaco

The Netherlands - What will
happen with my contribution?
The foundation will add your contribution to the general fund. In accordance with the directtress of the Centre we will decide if or how extra's for your adoptive child will be possibe. Of course we will thereby take care that your contribution will not get lost in the main stream of expenses, but also that there will be not too much focus on just one child. What ever will be "left over" will contribute to the (educational) needs of all the children living at the centre.
- Will I be
able to choose my adoptive child?
Given our means at this time, it is not possible to give you the opportunity to choose a child. Our practice up till now is that you can give us an indication (boy or girl / age category). We are on the way to build a database which eventuallly may give more posibilities in future.
- Will I
hear from my adoptive child?
In many cases very little is known about the children. Even about surname and date of birth we often are in the dark. However, we will keep track on the development of the children and ask the sisters at Ofcolaco to produce at least once a year a short summary. Primary concern of the sisters however will be to take care of the children. As this involves a lot of effort and time appears to be the most constraining factor, we ask for your patience. As we will visit the Centre regularly we will be able to inform you ourselves about your adoptive child's development. As soon as they will be able to write you a letter or send you a drawing we will ask them to do so.
You can be sure to (at least) receive a photo and a short description about your adoptive child.
