An Innovative Model for Funding Holistic Child Development within an HIV and AIDS pandemic SATS Edenvale Conference13 May 2011
Some introductory thoughts….. • Source of all blessings - intimacy with the Lord and in communion with with each other • We need to be open creative innovative ways • Source of strategy, tactics, principles, ethics, ideas, sustainability, innovation, creativity, funding • Stewardship and Talent Management
Objectives for Workshop • Locate the 4/14 and HCD movement within an HIV and AIDS context • Focus on orphans and children made vulnerable as a result of HIV and AIDS • Introduce an innovative funding model for HCD
Why focus on children at risk (CAR) within an HIV and AIDS pandemic • 5,7 million South Africa’s living with HIV • Levels of new infections – behaviour change critical • 4 % of children are maternal orphans • Conservatively estimated to be 1 million • Children orphaned as a result of HIV and AIDS 25% more likely abused • Reality of Child Headed Households
Exercise: Who is Responsible? • The Lord • Children • Adults in the Home • Local Community • Church • State • Business • Civil Society
A Biblical Response J A M E S 1 V E R S E 2 7 Pure and lasting religion in the sight of God our Father means that we must care for orphans and widows in their troubles, and refuse to let the world corrupt us. N e w L i v i n g T r a n s l a t i o n
Funding through Shared Responsibility International National CARE UNIT GOVERNMENT Local EXTENDED FAMILY (INCL VIRTUAL) CHILDREN AT RISK BUSINESS CIVIL SOCIETY THE CHURCH
Funding through Partnership with Government • Children’s Act – (support processes) • Support access and administration of Social Security • Child Support Grants (9,5 million) • Foster Care Grants (Children’s Act Process) • Adoption • Early Child Development Centres • After School Drop in Centres • VCT Support • Home-based and child care workers
Funding through Partnership with Business • Creation of Social Value – new intent to CSI • Section 18 (A) Tax Benefit • Social and Ethics Report Companies Act • Consumer Protection Act • Brand Association • Transfer of Technology • Social Capital (employee involvement) • Internships • Mentoring and Coaching
Funding through Partnership with Civil Society • Movement away from philanthropy to social entrepreneurship • Advocacy • Creation of Social Enterprises • Business Principles within Social Justice • Networks • Social Capital (friends, family, ..) • Competitive Advantage? • Social Value
Markers in development of the Trust as a care-based organisation • Advocacy – defending the cause • Innovation – scaling / new ideas / technology • Social Entrepreneurship – business model, product & service, competitive advantage, go to market • Social Enterprise, social organisation within a business structure: (finance, HR etc) • Leadership, strategy, governance, diplomacy
Innovation • Social Innovation – Virtual Adoption (Supplementary support by an ‘extended family’ that is located virtually) • Technology Transfer – business management systems to civil society (Management System for Orphans and Vulnerable Children, MSOVC)
Some Keys • In the Global Village – sufficient resources • Need to create people to people contact - emotional link makes for sustainability • Put a face and identity to poverty and suffering (statistics paralysing) • Menu driven – choice • Matched – individuals, households, cluster, village • Secure • Reporting - Narrative emotional basis for long term support
Social Capital • Social Network Theory – 1960s • Norms and Values (including regulations) • Sanctions • Each person has a social network • National Mobalization and International Solidarity • African Diaspora • Example Anti-Apartheid Movement (Role of Church)

CHILD STATUS INDEX The CSI was developed in response to the request by PEPFAR, OGAC and OHA to assess vulnerabilities, needs and desired outcomes for OVCs. It is used in Ethiopia, Rwanda, India, Cambodia and Swaziland. It measures and produces in a simple way, based on a standardized evaluation form, a status index which is expressed as: 1 = Very Bad 2 = Bad 3 = Fair 4= Good For the following Domains:
CHILD STATUS INDEX DOMAIN SUB-DOMAIN1 SUB-DOMAIN2
The Individual Development Plan is part of the Care Cycle and includes physical, mental and spiritual development Care Cycle implies the measurement of the quality and progress of the intervention at the different stages of the Care Cycle Care Cycle
What do we want to achieve: Objective evaluation of the need Matching of resources to the need Creating a budget to meet the need Measuring of expenses against budget Measuring of progress and determining that goals have been reached Reliable reporting Objectives
Bringing Donors and the Vulnerable together, securely and scalably.

SAP BusinessOne • Functional Areas: • Customer relationship management • Inventory and distribution • Ordering and delivery • Purchasing and merchandising • Production and manufacturing • Employees and human resources • E-commerce • Financial and accounting
What is the JRT? SBO WC
What This Means • It is technically possible by relying on virtual support clusters to mobilize resources to fund care cycles and development plans at individual, household, cluster and village level. • The use of business information management systems and business intelligence tools to manage the whole system and process • An automated administration system can be used to ensure security and efficiency and to cope with complexity • We therefore scale care-based organisations from 15% to 60%
Opportunity • Promote good practice • Child Rights Framework • Family Based Care (family care units) UNHRC • Integrated community development • Employment creation • Poverty alleviation • Weave together holistic development • Real opportunity for the Church (Mat 25)
MillenniumDevelopmentGoals (MDG’s) • Eradicate extreme poverty and hunger • Achieve universal primary education • Promote gender equality and empower women 4) Reduce child mortality 5) Improve maternal health 6) Combat HIV/AIDS, malaria and other diseases 7) Ensure environmental sustainability 8) Develop a global partnership for development
Challenges? • Selection of children • Support without increasing risks • Conflicting Rights, Sponsors, Caregivers, Children, NGO • Direct contact with Children? • Risks of dependency
Some Risks • Building a Rolls Royce engine with 4 wheel drive capability! • Technical sustainability • Funding • Manage expectations
Concluding Thoughts • HCD Nation Building • Identifying Next Generation of Leaders • Kingdom Expansion • Protocol of Heaven • Partnership with the Holy Spirit “…Adoption” Worshippers
