Elisa is a friendly and joyful young boy. In his spare time, he enjoys singing and playing pickup soccer games with his friends. When he grows up, he hopes to become a doctor so he can help save lives. In school, Elisa loves studying for his English class. Elisa comes from a very poor family. Both of his parents are unemployed, and they do not earn a reliable income. Frequently, they are unable to afford basic necessities or even pay their children?s school fees. Sponsorship will now provide Elisa with access to things like an education, school uniforms, 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
