Child Sponsorship

Give a child the gift of knowledge today

Sponsor a child for one year at $55 a month to cover educational expenses, monthly medical exams, and nutritious meals. It's the most strategic way to end child poverty — one child, one sponsor.

The Most Effective Gift You Can Give

Why $55 a month changes everything

In a world where more than a billion children live on less than $2 per day, connecting one child with one sponsor is the most strategic way to end child poverty. When leading development economists rated common poverty interventions for impact and cost-effectiveness per donated dollar, child sponsorship received the highest rating of all long-term programs.

Your monthly gift covers a child's educational fees, school uniforms, tutoring, and health care — life-changing opportunities that would otherwise be completely out of reach. Every sponsored child gets the chance to develop their God-given potential and be released from the poverty that has trapped their family for generations.

Integrity in Every Step

How we choose which children to register

A local church partner is always the implementer of our child development work — local congregations are catalysts for community change and know their neediest, most vulnerable children. Staff interview parents and caregivers to honestly assess each family's poverty and each child's ability to benefit. We register children from both Christian and non-Christian families, and no more than two children from the same family.

  • Suffer from malnutrition
  • Are not otherwise able to attend school
  • Have the potential to progress in school
  • Are orphaned or abandoned
  • Live with a single parent or caregiver

We give special priority to children who meet these criteria.

One child is waiting for one sponsor

For about $1.80 a day, you can change the course of a child's life — and the generations that follow.
