Payment Methods
Sponsor a Child
Child sponsorship creates a special relationship between you and a specific child in our programs. Your monthly commitment provides consistent support for that child's education, healthcare, nutrition, and overall development.
The Impact of Sponsorship
When you sponsor a child, you're not just providing financial support; you're showing that child that someone cares specifically for them. This personal connection is incredibly meaningful for children who have experienced loss and hardship.
As a sponsor, you'll receive:
- A profile and photo of your sponsored child
- Regular updates on your child's progress and activities
- Letters and drawings from your sponsored child
- Annual reports on how your support is making a difference
- Opportunities to send special gifts and messages
Many sponsors develop meaningful relationships with their sponsored children over time, exchanging letters and seeing first-hand the positive impact of their support.
Sponsorship Levels
Basic Sponsorship - $40/month
Provides essential support for education, nutrition, and healthcare
Comprehensive Sponsorship - $75/month
Adds additional educational resources, extracurricular activities, and family support
Premium Sponsorship - $100/month
Includes all benefits plus advanced education support, specialized healthcare, and future education savings
You can sponsor for as long as you're able, but we encourage a minimum one-year commitment to provide stability for the child. Many of our sponsors have supported the same child for many years, watching them grow and develop.
