Why sponsor a child?

Purpose

Millions of children, especially girls, are denied access to basic rights. Sponsor a child to support their right to go to school, to be healthy and to enjoy equal opportunities.

Connection

Sponsor a child and share letters, drawings and photos to build a personal connection. You’ll hear firsthand from your sponsored child how your support is making a difference.

Progress

When you sponsor a child, you’ll receive inspiring updates about them and their community and the achievements your support helps make possible.

Community

As a child sponsor, you partner with entire communities to lead sustainable, community-wide change, like improving schools or boosting family income sources.

How Sponsorship Maximizes Impact

The Plan Effect is our unique approach to sponsorship and community-based programs. It creates holistic developments for children and their families, from improvements in health care to increases in girls’ school enrolment and anything in between.
