Grace still needs an additional sponsor of $600 per year to help keep her in high school.
Friends, I'm so happy to say that 2 of our 3 children that still needed sponsorship have been sponsored by amazing families! But, we still have one sweet girl, Grace, that needs a sponsor! $50 per month or two people to commit $25 per month! OR, a bunch of people can make a one-time gift that can add up to her yearly sponsorship need of $600 for 2017.
This is truly a gift that keeps on giving and the real definition of generosity!
I wish everyone could experience the joy of helping someone that will likely not be able to pay you back. This is how I got involved in Kenya...it all started with sponsoring one child...then two...then three...and it grew and grew into Give Amore! God changes hearts and perspectives and PRIORITIES!
Most of us won't even miss $50 per month. We blow it on overpriced coffee, some gadget we will give away in a year or some toy our children (who have closets and playrooms overflowing with toys) will play with for a few days. Can you consider buying used toys for your child's birthday and instead sponsor a child, who without our program, will not be able to break the cycle of poverty because she won't have an education!
I try not to get on a soapbox about things like this because, honestly, I would be left with no friends because no one wants to hear how they can sacrifice something small to make a difference..no body in America likes to go without...we work too hard to sacrifice our finances...but, honestly, the joy you receive in return is worth more than any trinket, any dinner, any coffee...it's eternal and it will help you through the off days when you feel sad or depressed or hopeless with our world.
Consider giving someone a hope and a future for Christmas. This gift will always be my favorite.
