Chalice is a Canadian Catholic nonprofit organization that sponsors vulnerable children to help them complete their education. It operates sites in Bolivia, Chile, Ghana, Guatemala, Haiti, India, Kenya, Paraguay, Peru, Philippines, Tanzania, Ukraine, and Zambia, working with religious and lay partner organizations to provide nutrition, education, and medical care to sponsored children and their families. Through community projects, Chalice oversees the construction of schools, clinics, hospitals, orphanages, homes, and other facilities, and sponsor sites offer training and skill-building programs to help parents gain employment or start small businesses. Chalice uses a Family Funding sponsorship model in which each child's parent or guardian joins a community group, opens a bank account, and receives financial literacy training to manage their child's funds. The organization is based in Bedford, Nova Scotia, Canada and employs 51-200 people; it reports that over 90% of its spending goes toward programs.
