My father sponsored children through this organization for many years and I started with my Dad. My experience has always been a positive one. Today I received a letter that a young lady I sponsored since she was 9 (she turns 19 in September) - Shatabdi Barman - can not be located. The letter conveys that Shatabdi's family has moved away and neighbors could not convey where they went. I pray her and her family are well. I hope that Shatabdi does reach out at some point so I know that her and her family are well. I will miss ... read more

A cada momento le cambian de padrino, no dejan que los niños hablen directamente con ellos seguramente para que no les cuenten lo que pasa e... read more

I've sponsored children for 18 years now... I love the excellent work that Children International is doing! I can see the difference in my sponsored children's faces when I get their yearly photos and letters... They are joyful, growing in confidence, they know that someone cares about them, and they grow into confident, loving adults that will in turn make a difference in their community! <3 

Business response:

Wow, 18 years is amazing! Thank you so much for all your support and the review Leti. We appreciate your kind words.
