CHILD SPONSORSHIP
GIVE ONE CHILD A FUTURE THEY CAN'T IMAGINE YET
For $49 a month, you provide nutritious food, medical care, an education, and steady spiritual mentorship to a child in rural India or Iraqi-Kurdistan.
THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD HAS COME
We don't wait for the darkest places to become safe before we go — we go because that's exactly where the Light belongs. One by one, we bring vulnerable children into food, safety, education, and a family of people who will not let them go.
Our sponsorship program reaches some of the most rural villages in India and is the only child sponsorship program serving Syrian refugees in Iraqi-Kurdistan — often, we're the only organization there at all.
