How Sponsorship Works

How Sponsorship Works

1

Prayerfully choose a child to sponsor.

Browse the children waiting for a sponsor and learn about their interests, personality, and story. Prayerfully choose the child you feel called to support.

2

Receive photos, updates, and letters.

As a sponsor, you'll receive letters, photos, and updates throughout the year, giving you a glimpse into your child's life and growth. You're also encouraged to write to your sponsored child, offering prayers and words of encouragement.

3

Watch your child grow in faith and education.

Your sponsorship provides a loving home, a Catholic education, and a foundation of faith while creating a meaningful connection across the world. As your child grows, you'll witness the lasting impact of your generosity and prayers.

What Your Sponsorship Provides

The care and education your sponsored child receives empowers him or her to return to their communities and help elevate them out of poverty. With your gift of just $30 per month, you improve the life of an impoverished child by providing:

• Access to a quality education rooted in the Catholic faith

• Nutritious meals & clean drinking water

• Clothing and safe housing

• Books, school supplies, & other basic needs

• Appropriate medical care as needed

• Access to organized sports & other extracurricular activities

Choosing Your Sponsored Child

Choosing your sponsor child is a personal and meaningful part of the sponsorship journey. As you browse the children waiting for a sponsor, take time to read about each child’s interests, personality, family background, and story. You may feel drawn to a child because of a shared interest, a particular need, their age, or simply because their story touches your heart. There is no wrong way to choose; each child is waiting for someone who will encourage them, pray for them, and help provide the support they need to grow and thrive. We invite you to prayerfully choose the child you feel called to sponsor, knowing that your decision can become the beginning of a life-changing relationship.

Choose a Sponsorship Plan

When you sponsor a child through Abode for Children, you help provide steady care, encouragement, and support for a child’s future. Once you’ve chosen the child you feel called to support, your next step will be to choose the sponsorship option that fits your giving goals.

Connecting with Your Sponsored Child

One of the most meaningful parts of sponsorship is building a relationship with your sponsored child. Sponsors are encouraged to write letters and send photos, offering words of encouragement and letting their child know they are loved and remembered. Children reply with letters and new photos twice a year, at Christmas and Easter, creating a lasting connection that brings joy to both sponsor and child.
