Matthias is a quiet little boy who loves to spend time on the soccer field with his friends. He also enjoys going to school each day and especially likes learning about the Bible. In fact, it is his favorite book to read. Matthias hopes to become a pilot when he grows up so he can travel the world.
Matthias is no stranger to poverty. Matthias’ parents work as farmers, but most of the crops that they grow are used for meals at home, so there is rarely any left over to sell as a source of income. Because of this, the family often struggles to make ends meet. Through sponsorship, Matthias will receive 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
