What is Child Sponsorship?

“I’m a proud sponsor because I want to live out the value of serving to make others’ lives better. It’s on my heart to love those around me – near and far. I know the kingdom of God is at work all around the world and I’m grateful that I get to be a part of this child’s life. It’s shaped my heart to love everyone around me, as any simple act of love can make a difference.

– AJ Moen, Retirement Manager

“Happy isn’t a strong enough word to describe how anyone would feel when seeing the child you are sponsoring in a better place just because you write a letter and the little bit of money you donate – it all makes a huge impact. It gives you a different feeling and view about the work we do here at KeHE.”

“Working at KeHE gave me an amazing opportunity to sponsor a child. I jumped at the chance to be able to open possibilities for a child in need.  To know that by sponsoring our child we are providing her with life-changing opportunities to grow.  For just a few dollars a month, the difference I could make was never a question in my mind.”

— Julie Caine, Creative Director

“In the eternal words of Gandhi: ‘The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.’ We give back because it teaches us to find compassion within ourselves and to stay attached to values that are linked to the common good. This is what I have tried to live by and to instill in my own children and now my grandchildren.”

— Cindi Tepper, Financial Travel Manager

 

“We decided to sponsor a child through Compassion after learning about KeHE’s 50% match. It makes it easier to impact a child’s life for eternity. And, we can serve Michell right from our own home!”
