Long-Term Shelter

Gifts from this catalog will not go directly to your sponsored child. Compassion staff at each center work to identify Compassion assisted children and their families with the most pressing needs. We want to be sure that your gifts through this catalog will go to the children and families who need them most.

Gifts shown here illustrate actual goods and services used in Compassion’s program to support the health and well-being of children in poverty. Livestock, for example, are critical economic and cultural assets for families, who care for the animals because they are a source of their livelihoods.

Each gift you make represents a contribution to the entire mission of Compassion International and will be used by the church where the need is greatest.

We desire to be good stewards of your gift, and when we receive more contributions for a given fund than we can use, we apply those funds to similar needs.

Some suggested amounts are actual costs based on field needs, while others, including water wells, bathrooms and electricity, are an average amount per child, based on the need of an entire Compassion center.

While we’ve tried to base gift amounts on average amounts requested to help children in our program, these are truly suggested gift amounts. We deeply appreciate any donation, no matter its size!
