Irene is a sweet young girl known for her outgoing and bubbly personality. She loves going to school every day and learning new things, especially in her English class. When Irene finishes her homework, she is usually practicing her dancing skills with her friends. With a caring heart, she dreams of becoming a nurse in her village someday. Irene has faced a challenging life of poverty since she was born. Her parents try their best to provide, but they regularly cannot afford the basic necessities that their daughter needs to grow and receive an education. Sponsorship will provide Irene with things like nutritious meals, durable clothing, 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
