Sponsor a Child
Your sponsorship provides children with personalized, holistic care all the way through adulthood. Aside from providing financial support for education, a safe home, and warm meals – you have the opportunity to also provide for your sponsor child through prayer and encouragement. You get to be that extra person in their corner, championing who God is shaping them to be!
Sponsorships occur in increments of $44. Sponsoring at any rate is truly impactful in the life of a child, and you! If you see that a child needs more than $44 and are willing to sponsor, you may click the dropdown box that appears on that child’s sponsorship page to sponsor at any of the incremented amounts that work for you. Thank you for impacting the hearts of children!
