Sonakshi is an active young girl who spends her free time improving her soccer skills. Eager to learn all she can, she loves attending school and particularly excels in her English class. With great bravery, Sonakshi hopes to protect her community as a police officer when she grows up. Sonakshi?s family belongs to one of the lowest castes in India, and they are often discriminated against. Although her father works long hours as a truck driver to provide for his family, his wages are meager and often insufficient for their daily needs. Sponsorship now gives Sonakshi access to things like a quality education and nutritious meals.

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
