Compassion Child

H and I had been wanting to sponsor a child through Compassion for awhile now and we finally took the step and found a child through our church's partnership with a church in Uganda. She is an adorable little girl and we are so excited to get to know her! I just wanted to share my excitement with you girls! Does anyone else sponsor a child through Compassion or some other organization?

We used to.  We've since switched to helping children in our own area through Friends of the Children.

We used to as well but now we are trying something new!

I do love sponsoring them though! I hope you enjoy your time getting to know her!

I sponsored a child through the last part of highschool and most of college. Unfortunately, I had to quit, but my fiance and I are already talking about sponsoring a child together as soon as we are able.

The H and I support a little boy in Ecuador through Compassion. Have been supporting him for about 2 years now... he is such a cutie and I love hearing about how he is doing! When we first started sponsoring him, he was 5 and his mother/tutor would write his letters for him, but now he is older and writing them himself! So great to witness his growth!

I sponsor 2 boys through Watoto Childcare Ministries based in Uganda.  I got to meet one of them when I was there 3 years ago!  It was such an amazing experience. My FI sponsors a little girl though there also

We sponsor 3 children through Compassion. I have sponsored two of them since 2003. They were both born in 1996 and live in Kenya. In 2007 I got to meet them in Nairobi. It was probably one of the best experiences of my life. I love to hear from them and get new pictures to see how they are growing. I plan to sponsor them through the end of the program (assuming they both continue in the program) and that would be until they are 21.

We also sponsor a boy in the Dominican Republic (since last summer). Joe writes to him and it is so sweet to see him take an interest in it. He is 5 years old so I would imagine we'll sponsor him for another 16 years.

Compassion does such an amazing thing for these children. And they do a great job of keeping you informed and involved in the childrens' lives.
