Marvin is an outgoing and playful young boy with a very social personality. At school, he most enjoys learning to color and draw in his art class. In his free time, he also likes playing soccer with his friends. When Marvin grows up, he wants to become a doctor.
Marvin is no stranger to poverty. Both his parents work whatever jobs they can find around their community, but they earn less than $1 a week. It’s rarely enough to provide Marvin and his sister with their daily needs. Sponsorship will provide Marvin with things like nutritious meals 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
