Why does my sponsored child have more than one sponsor?

We recognize that sponsorship is on an at-will basis, and sponsors may need to cancel their sponsorships at any time. For this reason, each child may have up to two sponsors at a time. Multiple sponsorships allow financial stability on a monthly basis for our partners’ programs, as well as for the children who receive the benefits of those programs. This also allows the programs to support children that may not yet have a sponsor or are currently between sponsors.
