Child Sponsorship
In the short time
it has taken for you to find, then load this page another
child has died
from starvation. That's one child every six seconds. That's not a click of the fingers every six
seconds and a child dies, but a long painful journey of
malnourishment, pain and suffering, all the worse for very
young children who cannot understand why their bodies are
suffering so badly. And then they close their eyes. And its
over.
But its just
beginning for millions more. For decades, money has been
poured into the poorest nations of the Earth and yet still
children are dying needlessly. Fortunately, gone are the
days when food was simply delivered to communities which was
then eaten and the wait would begin for the next truck load.
Today, with child sponsorship projects, children are
helped within their communities to develop sustainable
projects by providing goats, chickens and seeds and water to
help grow their own food, receive better healthcare and
receive education so that these foundations can be built
upon for a better and long lasting future.
You can make
a difference. We're not asking that you necessarily take on
a long lasting child sponsorship (although we would urge you
to do so) but we do ask that you help provide a clean water
tap, a mosquito net, some seeds or perhaps a goat to provide
milk.
Look around
you, would a few pounds donated make such a big difference
to your life however tight things are? Just a few pounds can
save a life. Today.
