How We Work

Children Incorporated partners with already-established schools, group homes, and community centers to address the specific needs of the children they serve, offering each child basic needs every month. And because we partner with other organizations whose missions complement ours, your sponsorship contribution multiplies, increasing the impact of your monthly gift.

As a Children Incorporated sponsor, you become a member of our community. You help create a strong safety net that can help lessen the socio-economic gap so many of the world’s children are forced to navigate. And sponsorship is an adaptable safety net based upon a child’s current and emerging needs. Today that could be a warm coat and shoes, and tomorrow that may mean money for a book fair purchase, bath wipes because the home has no plumbing, a backpack filled with food, a birthday present, or support for a school field trip. We exist to eliminate the barriers standing in a child’s way, so they have a clear path to success through education.

United States

We work in seven states in the United States, both in inner cities and rural areas, including the Navajo Nation. Sponsoring a child in the U.S. provides them with basic necessities such as food, clothing, school supplies, and hygiene items. Your support helps ensure children have the vital essentials they need to grow up healthy, remain in school, and get a quality education in a safe and supportive environment.

International

We work in 19 countries in Central America, South America, Asia, and Africa. When you sponsor a child internationally, you are providing them with food, clothing, healthcare, and the opportunity to receive an education. For as little as $35 a month, you can ensure that children living in poverty have a chance at a better and brighter future.

Facts About Child Poverty

Children living in poverty are at risk of not receiving an education because they suffer from hunger, lack access to healthcare, or don’t have proper clothes — all of which are preventable.
