The power to choose in a child’s hands

Some kids wait years to be chosen by sponsors. Now it’s their turn: Give a child like Junior the chance to choose you as their sponsor. You can step into a life-changing connection, one that empowers the child and their community for a future filled with opportunities.

SPONSORSHIP WORKS! Because of our community-focused solutions, for every child you help, four more children benefit, too.
