Neema is full of energy and can often be found playing soccer with her friends. Though she just started school, she has already taken a special interest in her math class. When she grows up, Neema dreams of becoming a doctor in her community.
Neema is no stranger to poverty. Her father is sick and unable to work, and her mother cannot get a job because she must care for Neema and her nine siblings. With little to no income, the family struggles to make ends meet. Sponsorship will provide Neema with things like nutritious meals and a quality education.

How Sponsorship Works

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
