~Waiting on their world to change~


What is significant about this number?



490 represents the number of children that have been waiting for a sponsor from Compassion International for more than 6 months. More than 180 days of waiting to know they matter!





  • Compassion International has been a trusted charity since 1952.  
  • Over 1 million children have been sponsored over the years. 
  • Compassion International allows these children to receive educational opportunities, health care and health related instruction, nutrition, life skills training and an opportunity to hear the word of God.
 Each of the 490 waiting children receive these wonderful services but they are still waiting.
 

Waiting on a person like you to become their sponsor.

What is a sponsor?

A sponsor helps their child by establishing a connection that is integral to success of the Compassion program.   Sponsors help to develop a sense of confidence and self-worth through the letter they write and are part of the team of adults that are active in developing and encouraging the child.



When a child is assigned a sponsor their world changes! They will have communication from someone across the globe who cares about their success! Someone else who listens to what they have to say  and to pray for them.  




Please consider sponsoring a long waiting child today! You won't be sorry! $1.25 a day is a small price to pay to change the life of a special child!




***Sponsor a child today and receive a free Compassion scrapbook.  This scrapbook will be a great way to organize all the letters and photos you receive from your sponsored child.  Just make your first payment today with your credit or debit card to receive this free gift.  This offer is only available to citizens of the United States.***
