Welcome to The Torchbearer's campaign for children.

Join me in changing a child's life - become a child sponsor!

Around the world, millions of children are suffering. That's why We've joined the Connect Your World campaign - to connect caring people in our world with children in need.

We're asking you to join us in doing something that's both easy and life-changing - sponsor one special child.

Every day, nearly 30,000 children die, most from things that child sponsorship can prevent. Imagine - you could be the difference between a life of hope and a life of despair.

We've partnered with World Vision because we know they're effective and trustworthy. Last year, 87% of their total revenue went to programs benefiting children, families, and communities in need.

Every help counts! JOIN OUR TEAM.

Here's how you can help!

Sponsor a child from a developing country:
For just $30 a month, you can make a lasting difference for one child and his or her entire community by providing access to basic life necessities - things like clean water, health care, education, and hope for a better future. Learn more.

Sponsor a HopeChild* living in an HIV/AIDS-affected community:
For $35 a month, you can provide life-saving help and lasting hope to a child living in a community devastated by the HIV/AIDS pandemic - the greatest humanitarian crisis of our time. Your gifts will provide access to basic life necessities like clean water, nutritious food, and health care. You'll also give your sponsored child hope for a better future through access to things like education, counseling, and HIV/AIDS prevention training based on biblical values. Learn more.

Please join me today! Get connected by sponsoring a child now.
