Children represent about half of the almost 900 million people living in extreme poverty. Families all over the world are struggling to provide their children with the most basic needs in food, healthcare, and shelter.

62 million children worldwide suffer from acute malnutrition and 1 in every 7 children are underweight. Another 124 million children are not receiving an education, and those numbers are steadily rising (Unicef 2016).

Poverty greatly increases the possibility of children being orphaned, and opens the doors to sexual exploitation and trafficking. Many desperately loving parents believe that the only way they can give their children food, healthcare, and an education, is by giving them up to an orphanage. For others, human traffickers deceive unsuspecting parents and caregivers into giving up their children, by offering false promises of education or employment.

A loving family has been proven to the best place for a child to form the healthy attachments and the emotional growth necessary for life.

167 million children around the world live in extreme poverty.
62 million children worldwide suffer from acute malnutrition.
1 in every 7 children is underweight.

We preserve families through Child Life Sponsorships, feeding initiatives, and educational programs.

Our Program Fundamentals

1. Fatherless children and those in kinship care such as grandparents, or foster parents.
2. Children whose poverty has increased as a result of natural disasters.
3. Dedicated to  a deeper quality of care for each individual child before expanding to other children.
4. We seek to identify sustainable resources for families and communities such as gardens, chickens, and micro-business solutions.
5. The child cannot be sponsored by another agency

Child Life Sponsorships

Children suffering from malnutrition are measured by social workers trained in using the MUAC- Mid-Upper Arm Measurement as determined by international standards (WHO).

Eligibility for each child is determined by the local community health workers and and other community leaders in partnership with the Compassionate Reach medical advisory team.

Jessie is a 4 year old boy who is being raised by his grandparents (“kinship care”). Jessie is malnourished and part of our feeding initiative to restore him to health.

Jessie is waiting for a sponsor who will fill his belly  with good food so he can go to bed without feeling hungry, and wake up to the school bells calling him to a brighter future.

Will you partner with us in bringing Jessie and others like him a future filled with promise and a hope?

For less than the price of one cup of coffee a day, or one dinner out per month, you can change the life of a child and reveal to her /him that she is greatly loved by God – and you.

For as little as $60 a month you can change the life a child.

For an addition $10 per month, you can provide an education opening the doors to a lifetime filled with promise.

We have many more children in need of a Child Life Sponsor. Please fill out the sponsorship form and we will send information on your designated child.

Do sponsorships work?

A study of adults who graduated from six different sponsorship programs revealed that children enrolled in sponsorships have a 7 – 17% increase in “white collar employment; are 20 to 33% more likely to attend secondary education; a later age for marriage and childbearing; are 8% more likely to send money back to family members decreasing their poverty level; and significantly affect younger siblings who go on to pursue higher education and better employment (Wydick 2013).

“Is it not to share your food with the hungry
and to provide the poor wanderer with shelter—
when you see the naked, to clothe them,
and not to turn away from your own flesh and blood?” (Isaiah 58:7)
