The Need

Never before have there been so many children.  Of the 6 billion people living on our planet, nearly 2 billion are under 18.  Never before have they been so vulnerable.  Most of these little ones live in developing countries, without many of the things that we take for granted:  clean water, sufficient food, shelter, adult supervision, medical care, an opportunity for education….  If you are a child in the world today, there is a good chance that you are vulnerable, facing grave risks on a daily basis.  Many of the world’s children are poor; they are orphaned, homeless, and exploited.  They are overwhelmed, they are distressed, and they quickly become hopeless. 

These children are vulnerable and need our help. 

You can help by sponsoring a child.  With your financial assistance, you can give a vulnerable child what they urgently need:  food, education, medical care, and most importantly, the knowledge that somebody cares for them—that someone outside of their circle of existence wants a better future for them.  That simple thought can be inspiring and life-changing for a child in need.  Your help can be the critical link for the well-being of the child living on the edge of poverty and despair.
