Sponsor a Child for One Year
Provide an education for one child. Your gift can help pay school expenses or provide essentials like school uniforms, textbooks, backpacks, and school supplies - and even help them get nutritious meals, so they can be ready to learn. Your gift will ensure that one child in poverty can receive what he or she needs to get an education.
In the Philippines, special education classes are almost non-existent; but at the Door of Hope, we assess each child's individual needs and do our best to bridge the gaps, with the help of patient tutors and special learning tools. At least a third of our students are in special education classes.
On Palawan, Rufina and Ricky couldn't go to school because their eyesight was too poor to read the regular textbooks and they couldn't see the chalkboard. “We used to stand outside the school windows and listen to the classes as they went on.” Ricky recalls. Their situation was all too common. Many of the children who come to the Door of Hope have never had a chance to go to school because of poverty, learning disabilities, or physical limitations.
Thankfully, the Door of Hope Children's Home provided the eyeglasses, large print books and special learning tools needed. Today, Rufina and Ricky are back in school and pursuing their dreams of going to Bible school. “I want to study the Word of God,” says Rufina. “I want to learn how to share the hope I have been given.”
You can help more children like Ricky and Rufina get the education they need. Please sponsor a child today.
Just $300 will cover most expenses for a child for one year. If you break that down, it comes to $25 per month. You can pay monthly or in one lump sum. Your gift will help with school expenses and even help provide nutritious meals.
Within two weeks of receiving your sponsorship, you will receive an email with personal information of the child you have sponsored. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us.
