Tony is an energetic boy who loves reading and playing soccer with his friends. He also enjoys learning new things in school, especially in his language class. When he grows up, Tony hopes to become a doctor so he can help care for the sick people in his community.
Tony is no stranger to poverty. His parents struggle to find work, so all they have right now are part-time jobs. Despite their best efforts, their small wages aren’t enough to provide for their 10 children, which means Tony often goes without his most basic needs.

How Sponsorship Works
Choose a child to sponsor from the country of your choice
Receive your welcome packet in the mail with more info on your child
Continue giving monthly or annually to meet your child's needs and write letters to stay in touch
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
