Every time someone becomes a sponsor, two lives are forever changed.
Of course, the lives of sponsored children are changed for the better as a result of your financial gifts. With your support, and the support of other caring sponsors, we work with a child's family and other members of the community to develop the entire community's ability to take care of itself. The children will benefit from much-needed programs that enable them to attend and thrive at school, provide basic medical care and hygiene education. Families benefit as well, through economic opportunity programs that provide training for parents so that they can better support themselves.
But the children also benefit in ways you can't even imagine. The love you provide through a simple letter may be the encouragement a struggling girl or boy needs to make it through another day. You'll see up close and personal how you've given your child the chance for a better, brighter future.
The second life that is changed is yours.
How can you not be touched by the photographs ... the letters ... the drawings from your sponsored child? You'll see your child's face change and mature as he or she grows up happier and healthier — thanks to your caring and commitment.
When you become a child sponsor, it will forever change your life and the life of the child you sponsor. The special relationship you can develop with your child is something you'll both cherish forever.
