You can make a difference in the life of a child!

A sponsor relationship not only gives a child a chance through education but also hope. Kids know that someone somewhere cares. It changes everything.

We strive to recruit children with very high academic potential and a willing guardian who will guide them adequately. All they need is a caring person willing to sponsor and their lives can be transformed!

Today, more than 200 children are on the waiting list. They have academic aptitude and guardians who support education. All they need is a sponsor.

The cost to sponsor a student is $100 a month. To start a sponsorship, just click on the ‘Learn More’ button under the pictures below. Want to use stocks, a donor advised fund, or an RMD instead? Send an email to Operations Manager [email protected].

Primary students:

These students are usually new to the program and will enter 4th to 6th grade after sponsorship.

Secondary and Boarding students:

These students have typically been in the program for several years but their original sponsors have discontinued their support. Their continued success depends on your support.


Higher education and trade school students:

We support most of our students through some type of postsecondary/higher education. As these students get closer to seeking employment, it is a critical time in their education.  Please consider making this one- to three-year commitment. Post-secondary support may include transport, lodging and meals.

Current Sponsors

One of the most rewarding things about our program is the relationship that may be fostered between a child and sponsor. This is primarily achieved through written, photo, and video communication sent through our sponsor portal.
