​

 

What is the difference between sponsorship and general donation?

Sponsoring a child does more than providing for this child. Sponsorship creates a ripple effect that touches not only the children that are being sponsored but also their whole families, even their communities, and creates a change that will carry on for future generations. Furthermore, sponsorship creates a deep connection between the child and the sponsor that often lasts for a lifetime. Sponsoring children enables them to know that they are loved, supported, and that someone deeply cares for them.

​

General donations provide support for all of our operations including the sponsorship program and are directed toward the areas where they are most needed and will be used to their full potential.
