 For Christmas, give a child sponsorship as a gift!

In 2011, thanks to the generosity of many people, we opened a shelter home for children victims of the earthquake in Haiti. In Malawi and Mozambique we passed the line of 2000 children who now eat every day at one of our nutrition centres. 

With Christmas, by putting a child sponsorship under the Christmas Tree, we can continue to support these programmes for children in the world.
