Where to Hear About Us
How We Work

Changing the world one child at a time

Compassion focuses on spiritual, physical, economic and social needs of children. Our Child Sponsorship Program has the following bases. We are:

  • Christ Centered. Each child has an opportunity to hear the gospel in an age-appropriate and culturally relevant way.
  • Child Focused. Engaging each child as a complete person, we treat children like we'd want our own children treated.
  • Church Based. We partner with churches, parents and communities — to teach, train and mentor children.
  • Committed to Integrity. We're dedicated to delivering excellent programs with complete integrity.
Child Sponsorship 
Sponsoring children in need is the core of how Compassion works. By sponsoring a child, you can change the life of a child forever. 
Child Participation 
Participation in a Compassion child sponsorship program is a long term, holistic process rooted in learning.
Church Partnership 
Compassion forms partnerships in places where local churches are active and focused on caring for children who are ensnared in poverty. We love this shared faith and sense of purpose: it's a partnership that works.
Church's Role 
Compassion may know children, but we don't necessarily know your children  —  yet. That's why the role of the local church and community is so vital.
Project Overview 
Although many factors go into launching a new Compassion project, it all starts with a few people who are interested in helping poor children and determine to do something about it.
Child's Family 
Just like a good church partnership, Compassion's child sponsorship program success is vitally linked to a child's family.
