Hope

Compassion's child sponsorship ministry is giving children HOPE for the future. These children live in abject poverty and experience a type of life we can't even imagine. Without sponsorship, these children lack the opportunities and resources to escape poverty. Compassion is changing that through their holistic child development sponsorship program.
