Rescuing Youth Through Our Student Sponsorship Program
Our vision is to see the urban poor discipled to transform communities. Our Sponsorship Program is one of the ways we are working to see that vision realized. Your pledge enables us to help a poor child and create many opportunities for them to have a better future.
Sponsorship also gives some of the Philippines’ poorest children and youth an education and the chance to hear about what God has done for them through Jesus Christ. Although there is government tax money for education, many families in the slum areas simply can not afford to send their children to school.
We support students in Pre-school, Elementary School, High School & College, giving them opportunities otherwise beyond their reach. At present, we are committed to support more than 300 students (2011) and we believe that God is challenging us to see this number increase to 1,000 students over the next few years.
