When you support children through sponsorship for the holidays, you’re helping to ensure that they can grow up healthy, learning and safe — no matter where they were born. Too many children right here in the U.S. and around the world aren’t getting the opportunity to reach their full potential. But you can help make a difference this holiday season by sponsoring a child for christmas.
Child sponsorship is a program that enables you to support children, their families and entire communities — giving them the chance to grow up healthy, educated and safe – forever changing their life and future.
Making a difference through sponsorship with Save the Children costs about $1 a day. Just $39 a month is pooled with the donations of others and makes a powerful investment in children’s lives and futures!

By partnering with communities for 10-15 years, this long-term commitment allows us to work with the community to thoroughly assess and understand their community’s unique needs and work with them to deliver successful sponsorship programs that achieve lasting results.
When our teams transition out of an area, we work to ensure local community members feel confident in continuing the programs we started together without our ongoing support. This allows us to move on to help girls and boys in other communities while ensuring the successes we achieved for children continue.
