Latifa is a quiet girl who enjoys spending time with her friends and playing in the sandbox in her free time. She also enjoys going to school each day, and her favorite subject is math, where she likes solving problems and learning new concepts. When she grows up, Latifa hopes to become a dancer and bring joy to her community.
Latifa has lived in poverty her whole life. Her father earns a small income from part-time jobs, but it is not enough to provide for all of her needs. Despite their hard work, her family often struggles to afford the essentials a growing child requires. Sponsorship will provide Latifa with things like nutritious meals and a quality education.

Why sponsor a child?
“Child sponsorship is very rewarding because you know you're making a difference for that child. But the blessing you will receive far surpasses even the difference you make in the children's lives. You will see God at work!”
— Lita, Kentucky
“Sponsoring two little girls from Guatemala has changed the way I see life. As Christ-followers, we are called to love God and love others. I believe that we love God through loving others, and child sponsorship gives us the opportunity to do that.”
— Kayla, Virginia
“I believe child sponsorship is a way to touch the future. It's important to invest in the next generation, both here and around the world.”
— Margaret, California
