Sponsor a Child in Africa

While we know whole towns have been destroyed in Chile - and there is help on the way from many nations, which is great!

However, consider the long term benefits of sponsoring one child's education in Africa through WorldVision and similar organizations.

Your sponsorship of one child with education can affect no less than twenty children and people in the neighborhood. Just a few dollars a month for textbooks, clean water, food, health care and a basic education. Just one child.

If there were 100 people donating a few dollars a month for these basics—it will affect the lives of more than 2,000 people! Imagine what that can do in a small community!

If you become a child sponsor, you become connected to the child; he or she writes to you regularly telling you about progress. You can also sponsor a "HopeChild" who lives in a community affected by AIDS.

The countries of Africa are the most impoverished in the world and we must wake up to assist these children so they can have a future where none exist now for the majority of the African people.
