Little Elijah is a fun-loving and social boy who loves kicking around a soccer ball with his friends. He just started school, but he already enjoys learning new things in his math class each day. Though he is still young, Elijah already knows he wants to be a doctor when he grows up!
Elijah is no stranger to poverty. His parents work whatever jobs they can find in their village to make ends meet. They want to help Elijah achieve his dream of becoming a doctor, but without a reliable source of income, they can hardly provide him with his basic needs. Sponsorship will provide Elijah 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
