Sponsorship FAQ

Habari (hello), my name is Peter

  • location

    Kenya

  • 8 yrs. old

    04-10-2016

Entered the program: September 2022

Peter lives with his parents and little brother in a one-room house with only one bed. They fetch water from a borehole and the bathroom facility is in poor condition. Both of his parents are casual laborers and struggle to find odd jobs to provide for their children. Paying the fees to have Peter enrolled in school has been a challenge.

Peter is in good health but he and his brother were both born with an eye condition that has yet to be diagnosed since they lack the money to see a doctor.

Sponsorship Level What's this?

Three $38 sponsorships are needed to cover the complete holistic care of one child. Cover one, two, or three sponsorships.

Change the World for One

When you sponsor a child, you’re not just providing essentials like nutritious meals, clean water, education, and health care. You’re helping unlock something far greater—their God-given purpose. You’re creating a bond that goes beyond meeting needs, showing them the love of Christ and guiding them toward a future filled with hope.

How Sponsorship Works

Choose a Child to Impact

Select a child to sponsor and step into their journey with an ongoing commitment of at least $38 a month. By doing so, you'll be part of God's plan for their life, providing vital resources like education, meals, and spiritual guidance.

Get to Know Them

Receive your sponsor kit, complete with your child's detailed profile, photo, and special gifts. Get to know their hopes, dreams, and challenges as you begin a meaningful, life-changing relationship.

Speak Life Through Letters

Share prayers, encouragement, and love through letters and photos. Your words have the power to shape their faith and future, offering hope and strength as they navigate life. You can even visit your child on a short-term mission trip!
