Sponsoring children at Bethel Orphanage  i. Through Western Union:
By Western Union through: a) phone using a credit or debit card by calling a Western Union phone money transfer number posted online, telephone directory or elsewhere for your region, or b) online transfer using a credit or debit card, or c) by sending through your nearest Western Union agent or office.
i.a) Phone using a credit or debit card
Western Union’s website, http://www.westernunion.com or your regional telephone directory Yellow Pages have an official number for making phone transfers. For example, in the United States it is 1-800-CALL-CASH (1-800-225-5227) nationwide.
i.b) Online money transfer using a credit or debit card
This is through Western Union’s website, http://www.westernunion.com. They require users to create an account at their secure server. This is probably intended to protect users from unauthorized use of their bank cards. A confirmation email will be sent to you and in many cases they may require you to verify your transfer by calling them using your official number that is part of your Western Union account profile. This may change after a while of using your account, since your records become more verifiable in their system.
i. c) Through your nearest Western Union agent or office
Your financial support can also be sent through your nearest Western Union agent or office. A nearest location can be found online or in a local telephone book. An agent can be a store, salon, or any institution that is authorized by Western Union to provide their services.
In all three methods there is a transfer fee for each transaction, depending on the amount you are sending. Please make the funds payable to the overseer/caretaker of Bethel Orphanage. Western Union does can only transfer funds to names of individuals, not to names of organizations. The current caretakers at Bethel Orphanage are Dorcus Chama and Williams Tembo.
