Child Sponsorship - The GOD`S CHILD Project
Child Sponsorship Get Involved Our direct cost to care for each child is $120 per month for a child who lives with his/her own family, and $160 per month for each child who lives with a program foster family. With the latter, $50 a month goes right to the foster family. We ask you to help sponsor a child with an amount within your budget. Unlike most other charities, we do not set a fixed amount to sponsor a child. We know that some people can give more, and others less. Children exchange letters, cards and photos regularly with their sponsors. Sponsors also have the opportunity to visit their sponsored child and meet them in person.

The Project, founded in 1991 by Patrick Atkinson, currently cares for and educates 5,000 orphaned, abandoned, and poverty-stricken boys and girls. In addition, we provide health and community-based services for 8,700 widowed and single mothers and their dependents in Guatemala, El Salvador, India, Malawi and the United States. The Project operates on the belief we will break children and families out of poverty through education, housing and healthcare. Sponsor A Child You Can Help Sponsorship is a unique opportunity to connect and support one very special child. By sponsoring a child with The GOD’S CHILD Project, you form a personalized relationship with the project. This child becomes our ambassador to you. Currently, there are over 500 children being sponsored by almost 1,000 padrinos, or godparents. The children receive money for education costs, clothes, shoes, food and medical care every month. We pay school fees for these children, and buy their school uniforms, books and supplies. To you this boy or girl becomes the personification of all it is that we are doing to help the poor break the chains of poverty. The children in our sponsorship program are orphaned, abandoned, or come from extremely poor families who are eager to escape from the poverty that has trapped their family for generations. In addition, we provide children and their families with other essentials such as food, medical and dental care, crisis intervention counseling, clothing, and lots of loving structure on which they depend while they battle the dynamics of poverty.
