Two ways to sponsor a child

When you sponsor a child for $39 a month, you’ll show God’s love by helping establish sustainable access to basics like clean water, improved nutrition, quality education, healthcare, economic opportunity, spiritual nurture, and more.

The power to choose in a child’s hands®

Mayilche from Ghana

Mayilche from Ghana mirrors the enthusiasm of the sponsor she chose, a teen girl named Mila from Indiana. In Mayilche’s first letter to Mila, she writes, “God bless you for making me happy.”

Greisy from Guatemala

Greisy, 3, lives in a remote area of Guatemala where poverty takes away most choices. But getting to choose her own sponsor? Her smile says it all.

You’ll be stepping into a life-changing connection that empowers the child and their community for a future filled with opportunity. That’s because your monthly sponsorship will help ensure access to essentials that can open doors for kids to experience life in all its fullness.

BE CHOSEN

Fahin from Bangladesh

Fahin, 4, lives in Bangladesh and chose the Pontius family from Minnesota as his new sponsors. He chose them because, “I feel like I already know him!”

“Child sponsorship is amazing. It has changed my life in so many ways. If you’re thinking about child sponsorship, do it! It’s the best thing that can ever happen to you mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually.”

“This opportunity brings us together in such a close way that I think a lot of people don’t ever get that opportunity to have a connection like that.“

“I’m so wrecked! Kay has a big sister! Her name is Rhema, loves rice + beans and her favorite color is yellow. So emotionally happy and overjoyed! Being chosen is so much more effective than I thought. Thank you for this beautiful experience!“
