There are many ways to make a difference at
www.child-sponsorship.com however to actually sponsor a child is one of the most rewarding. Gone are the days when the idea
of becoming a sponsor to a child meant that one child is a
village was selected to benefit from 'western' money. That's
all changed now.
Today, when you sponsor a child, you are not only making a
difference to that child, but also to his or her community as
well, as some of the help goes directly to the young person,
but within the context of where he or she lives. So, when you
sponsor a child, where does your money go and how much does it
cost? Your money goes on ensuring the young person receives
heath care and education that will take them through to
adulthood with the necessary skills and knowledge to be
self-sustaining and with the health to ensure they can provide
for themselves, their family and community. And the cost? Often as little as just
50p a day, the price of a newspaper.
People often ask themselves, 'If I sponsor a
child, will it make a real difference?' Consider this. There
was a doctor who helped others who were victims of the Bali
bombing and, being one of the first on the scene, was able to
save the lives of many. It turned out he had been a sponsored
child and, without the help of someone like yourself, would
never have had the opportunity to train to be a doctor and
save others. Makes you think, doesn't it? And remember, all those images on
the television about starving children are stereotypical
(though often true). Most of these kids, however poor, have a cracking sense
of humour and have aspirations for a better life. Without you
that's probably beyond their reach so
your sponsorship will make a real
and meaningful difference practically overnight and the child/ren you sponsor will be deeply
appreciative that you have come into their lives and
opened doors for them such as giving them an education
that will help them make the most of their own future. They may never meet you,
though they could, but they know in their hearts you are
there for them helping them to secure a better future.
Please note that in the twelve years we have been online, we promote child sponsor programs and opportunities regardless of race, religion or creed but purely based on children's needs.
