Maria is an outgoing little girl who loves to spend time with her friends and play soccer in her free time. She also enjoys going to school each day, and her favorite subject is language arts, where she is learning to read and write. When she grows up, Maria dreams of becoming a doctor so she can help care for people in need.
Maria has lived in poverty her entire life. She lives with her grandmother, mother, and younger sister. Her mom works hard cleaning houses, but her income is not enough to meet Maria’s daily needs. Sponsorship will provide Maria 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
