What is Sponsorship?
It is a one-to-one relationship between you and your sponsored child. More  than a million sponsors worldwide  enjoy this relationship. You can correspond, pray for your sponsored child, receive regular reports on their progress, even perhaps visit the child and his or her family and community.

Sponsorship provides resources which go into a program, usually 10 to 15 years in length, custom-designed in collaboration with community leaders to address key spiritual and physical needs in the community. Programs are child-focused but also benefit non-sponsored children and families.

DNCF field staff noted that most of the developing world's poor children lived far beyond the reach of an institution--their days were spent in poor.

Recognizing that children would remain poor as long as their families and communities were impoverished, DNCF began working with parents and local leaders to identify development needs and break the cycle of poverty.
