Child Sponsorship

An Invitation to World Vision Child Sponsorship
We invite you to be a World Vision sponsor and make a world of difference for a struggling child. As a sponsor, you'll help remove the obstacles that poverty places in children's paths - and you'll enable them to realize their God-given potential. What may seem like a simple relationship is really the beginning of something much bigger.

The Joy of Child Sponsorship
Jesus loves children and he calls us to welcome them like He does. More than two million people around the world have welcomed children into their hearts through World Vision child sponsorship. As a child sponsor, you are connected with one special child who will know your name, write to you and feel your tender love and prayers - a constant reminder to them of God's love. The sponsor feels the joy of knowing that their open arms are welcoming more than a child - they are welcoming Christ himself.

What Sponsorship Provides Your Child
Your child sponsorship monthly pledge of $30 will provide a child with basic needs like nutritious food, clean water, an education, health care, spiritual nurture, practical life skills, vocational training, and more. Our experience has shown that the most effective way to create lasting change is to strengthen the entire community in which they live. Your gifts are combined with gifts from other sponsors in the same community to provide what is needed most with the goal to see these families reach a point where they no longer need outside assistance, bringing about a better life for your sponsored child, his community, and future generations as well.

Hope Children
For just $35 a month you can sponsor a HopeChild in African countries and other countries around the world to help turn the tide of the HIV/AIDS pandemic. In addition to the above, you can provide things such as: care for sick or dying parents, HIV/AIDS counseling and health care which promote Christian values of abstinence and fidelity which are age appropriate, and more. Our partnership with local churches enables us to more effectively reach those in need with trained volunteers to look after children's emotional, physical, and spiritual needs.

From Frank
"I’ve had the opportunity to visit five of the children we’ve sponsored. Recently I went to El Salvador and was just blown away by what I saw – the contrast between a village where World Vision had been working for just a few years and another where World Vision was about to begin working. It’s incredible to me how much World Vision can accomplish with the little money we send them. I’ve seen first hand that sponsorship does make all the difference in the world to these kids and how much it means to them to be a sponsored child."
