I keep all of my sponsor’s letters in a shoebox my aunt helped me decorate so they will stay safe.

Show a Waiting Child How Valued & Loved They Are

Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves, for the rights of all who are destitute. Speak up and judge fairly; defend the rights of the poor and needy.

- Proverbs 31:8-9, NIV

As the hands and feet of Jesus, it’s our responsibility to care for those living in poverty. An effective way to do that is through sponsorship.

Many children living in poverty experience loneliness, self-doubt and discouragement. A sponsor’s support is a life-changing way to show these children how valuable and loved they truly are.

Being loved and chosen by a sponsor fights the lies of poverty and speaks loudly to the child about their worth.

Why wait any longer? Sponsor a child in need today through Compassion's child sponsorship ministry.
