One of the best ways to express the importance of our work—all thanks to our sponsors and donors—is by sharing letters from our volunteer coordinators worldwide. Linda, at 

Highland Turner Elementary School recently wrote to us to express her sincere gratitude for you, our amazing sponsors:

Your support for the students enrolled in the Children Incorporated sponsorship program means their basic needs, such as clothing, shoes, undergarments, and hygiene essentials, are met. The Children Incorporated program is not just financial aid; it’s a personal connection. They eagerly anticipate your letters and gifts, cherishing the thoughtfulness behind each one. Your role as sponsors is so significant that students often stop me in the hallway to ask if they have received any mail from you. 

Not long ago, while on a shopping trip for sponsored students, an employee at a major retail chain asked me, after I informed him that I was shopping for a program at our school if this was for Children Incorporated. He then explained to me that he, too, had been a recipient of the Children Incorporated program and what a difference it made in his life. These children and now adults will never forget the kindness of strangers who decided to become sponsors and then friends. This is what Children Incorporated is all about — making a difference and changing lives. Your generosity and kindness are the backbone of our program, and we could not do this without you. Thank you to all the sponsors for going above and beyond to ensure our students are cared for! 

Sincerely,

Linda

your impact through hope in action

Sponsorship is one of many ways you, our loyal supporters, help impoverished children every month. Additionally, thanks to the generosity of our sponsors and donors who have made contributions to our Hope In Action Fund in the last month, we have been able to:

– Provide funding for the medical needs of the children at the Juan Apostol School in Guatemala
– Provide funds to purchase nutritious meals for students at Santa Isabel Ana Seton in Guatemala for one month
– Provide funds to purchase snacks for students at Alleghany High School in North Carolina
– Provide funds for the daily meals for 25 children for an entire month at Kids’ Hope Ethiopia
– Provide funds to offer nutritional meals to 40 children for an entire month at the Visayans Center in the Philippines
– Provide funding to purchase hygiene items for students at Rogers Elementary School in Kentucky
– Provide funds to purchase shelving supplies for the coordinator at Buckhorn Combined School in Kentucky for her resource center
– Provide funds to purchase a new refrigerator for a family of a sponsored child who attends Highland-Turner Elementary School in Kentucky

Thank you to our supporters for all that you do! We couldn’t do our life-changing work without you.
