CHILD SPONSORSHIP . . . WHY SPONSOR

 

Child sponsorship is a great force that gives a child the courage to believe in the possibility of  his/her dream.

Here are five compelling reasons why sponsorship works:

1. Sponsorship meets basic needs. Nutrition, clean water, medical assistance, and shelter are essential for survival, but imagine growing up without knowing if these needs will be met. When a child gains a sponsor, they have the overwhelming reassurance of knowing they won’t go hungry, they’ll have a safe place to sleep at night, and if they’re sick, they can count on receiving the help they need. That peace alone is reason enough to commit to helping a child in need.

2. Sponsorship provides educational opportunities. Every sponsored child receives a quality education and the priceless foundation to further themselves through higher education, vocational training, and by developing meaningful careers that will support their future families.

3. Sponsorship promotes gender equality. Giving both boys and girls equal access to growth opportunities helps bridge the gap of gender discrimination one child at a time. Particularly in cultures where little emphasis is placed on the value and flourishing of women, sponsorship offers little girls the chance to dream big dreams.

4. Sponsorship supports emotional well-being. Giving children the structure and stability of a loving care situation means that the constant anxiety of extreme poverty can finally be eased. When children experience the relief of having their needs met, their emotional health benefits immensely.

5. Sponsorship offers spiritual guidance and development. Most importantly, every sponsored child in our program has the opportunity to hear the Gospel. This, we believe, is the most priceless benefit of child sponsorship—the chance to know and understand the life-changing reality of God’s love.

All these our little ones have so much they can and want to offer their world, but they are faced with circumstances beyond their control -- Will we sit back and watch their light dim away? They are our PRICELESS JEWELS, for them we must go the extra mile.

If you really want to change the world, you have to empower the next generation of young people to carry the torch. That’s exactly what we strive to do in each of our World Help Child Sponsorship Programs and with each member of our Children of the World International Children’s Choir. Investing in the lives of children builds the foundation for lasting change. We’ve found that it’s the best way to reverse the cycle of poverty, build better families, and transform communities—even entire nations.
