How long will my sponsorship? When working with families and the community of their sponsored child, there is plenty to do before they reach the proposed targets to be met.

It is of great joy for all when the community reaches its goals, the families take control of your future and the child no longer needs to be sponsored. This is cause for celebration! We hope that day with great anticipation. It's a great privilege to participate in this achievement and to hear the family say: "Thanks to this love and this assistance, we can continue from here on." The status of each child is different.

It can be a teacher, a family member or a member of our staff. In this case, a note accompanying the letter, saying that their child received help writing sponsored.
Can I send a gift to my sponsored child? Unfortunately, no. Sorry, but due to high customs costs and restrictions imposed by various countries, we have seen the urgent need to establish a firm policy not to accept packages. However, several times during the year, we receive cards that you can sign and send to send your sponsored child. They love them, and is the easiest way to surprise your child with a loving message from you.		How do I send my contributions? Through our bank accounts. Each month, we will send you a report with information about the contributions we received from you.
		How can I get information about what I'm contributing? Each month, we will send you a report of all contributions we received from you the previous month.
