For only $30 a month—or $360 a year—you can provide a child in the Buvuma Islands with a future. Sponsorship is the most sustainable way to make a long-term difference. Your commitment ensures that a vulnerable child has nutritious food, a quality education, and the medical care they need to thrive. When you become a sponsor, you aren’t just giving a gift; you are giving hope.
A Connection That Matters
As a sponsor, you are more than a donor—you are a mentor and a friend. Because you are the only sponsor for your child, you will build a unique, one-on-one bond. You’ll see their face, hear their story, and watch them grow through:
- Photos of your sponsored child.
- Handwritten messages and drawings.
- Regular updates on their progress and their community.
How It Works: Your Journey Together
When you join our sponsorship family, you begin a rewarding journey of transformation. Here is what you can expect:
1. Your Welcome Kit As soon as you sign up, we’ll send you a Welcome Pack. This includes a photo of your sponsored child and a personal profile so you can get to know their personality, their family, and their dreams.
2. Personal Correspondence You will receive three handwritten messages every year. Whether it’s a letter, a colorful drawing, or a postcard, these updates allow you to hear directly from the child whose life you are changing.
3. Real-Time Impact In addition to letters from the child, our staff will send detailed progress reports. You’ll stay informed about their health, their school grades, and how your support is uplifting their entire community.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I choose which child I sponsor? Yes! You can browse our gallery to connect with a child yourself, or you can allow our team to choose for you. We ensure that children in the most urgent or “greatest need” situations are prioritized.
Can I write to my sponsored child? Yes! We encourage our sponsors to send words of encouragement back to their children.
Why this works for the US market:
Clarity on Deliverables: Using a numbered list for the “Journey” clearly explains what the donor gets in return for their money (The Welcome Kit, the 3 letters, etc.).
The “$1 a Day” Hook: Americans respond well to the “dollar a day” breakdown ($30/month). It makes the sacrifice feel small and manageable.
Emphasis on Exclusivity: Mentioning you are the “only sponsor” is a big selling point. Many large charities “double-sponsor” children; knowing their $30 is the sole support for that child feels more personal.
