Rahina lives with her parents, two older siblings, and grandmother in a two-bedroom house built with mud and roofed with thatch. The family has access to electricitybut not potable water. There is a village dam that residents draw water from until it dries up; then, the women and girls of the community have to walk long distances to find other sources. There is no local healthcare facility. Rahina’s village is very poor and lacks many resources.
Rahina’s family is Muslim. Her mother is a housewife and her father is a small-hold farmer who cultivates maize and cassava, but barely harvests enough food to last them throughout the year. The family has had to live on less than a dollar a day and Rahina’s parents struggled to provide the basic needs of Rahina and her siblings. Now since coming to Create Hope, the family has consistent food and Rahina is finally able to go to school every day.

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.
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.
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.
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!
Your sponsorship helps provide for your child’s physical, educational and spiritual needs. These needs are met differently depending on the community your child is in, but include things like:

Our programs focus on education – the #1 factor in breaking the cycle of poverty.
We place high value on personal communication with you as a sponsor.
