Shanitah is an outgoing and energetic girl who loves to spend her free time singing songs. She also enjoys playing netball with her friends. Shanitah is also a good student, and she particularly enjoys her English language class. She hopes to become a doctor when she grows up so she can help the sick people in her community.
Shanitah’s parents love her very much and do their very best to provide for her. However, they have no reliable source of income, and the little money they do make simply isn’t enough to pay for the essentials that Shanitah and her four siblings need. Through sponsorship, Shanitah will receive things like nutritious meals, durable clothing, 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
