The power to choose
in a child’s hands. ®

Poverty steals choices from kids. Give those choices back and empower a child to take hold of their future for $39 a month. Sign up to have a child choose you as their sponsor.

How being chosen works

First, sign up and submit your photo

Your name and photo will be sent to a community where local staff are preparing a time for kids to choose their sponsors. We’ll keep you updated about the choosing process via email!

Then a child will choose YOU

A child in need will see photos of people waiting to be chosen and one special child will choose your photo. Everyone who signs up is chosen.

Find out who chose you

You’ll soon get a photo of your new sponsored child holding YOUR photo, plus a letter about why you were chosen. You can strengthen the connection by writing back through the World Vision app or sending a letter.

How sponsorship helps

Your $39 monthly gift will combine with other sponsors’ gifts to show God’s love, helping kids and families get sustainable access to life’s basics. Then you’ll get regular updates on their progress. Research proves that kids benefit from sponsorship programs. Here are just a few ways:

Kids’ literacy increases and the quality of education improves with teacher trainings, reading camps, and access to learning resources.

More children reading

Families can raise healthier kids and prevent illness with clean water, health and nutrition knowledge, and well-stocked local clinics.

Healthier families

Kids have more chances to stay in school when clean water access and menstrual hygiene facilities are available.

Kids in school

Communities become stronger as parents are equipped to lead, protect, and nurture their children with biblical principles in safe and loving ways.

Better job opportunities

People have hope for their futures as they see and participate in God’s love in action.

Stronger communities

Families can break the cycle of poverty with savings groups, more access to business opportunities, and financial training.

Hope for the future

Why will someone choose you?

We love seeing the smiles on kids’ faces when they choose their sponsors. But we especially love the way God inspires these life-giving connections, sometimes for the most endearing reasons.
