Sponsor a child
Children are a community's greatest resource. By becoming a sponsor,
you help provide a child with the opportunity to become a healthy and fulfilled adult, experience God's love,
hear and respond to the Gospel, and bring about lasting change to their families and communities.
Through child sponsorship you can change the world – one child at a time!
Sponsoring a child through Compassion is easy. Click on any child's name or photo to learn more about that child.
To complete your sponsorship, click on the link below the child's information, and fill out a secure online sponsorship form.
The Disposable Ones
More than 60 per cent of the modern-day Colombians are extremely poor and many families have disintegrated. And it is Colombia's 6.5 million children who suffer most in a cycle of poverty, drug related violence, civil war and family breakdown. Those orphaned by the civil war, or abandoned due to drug related violence and family breakdown fight daily to survive, living - and sometimes dying - in the streets and the rubbish dumps of the cities of Bogota, Medillin and Cartegena. Unloved, unwanted, beaten, robbed, abused, raped, and murdered, Colombia's poor children are nicknamed 'ninos gamines' - THE DISPOSABLE ONES. But this is the polite name. More frequently they are referred to as 'throwaway children'. You now have the chance to release these children from poverty in Jesus' name!

| * Priority children have waited many months for sponsorship and desperately need your help. Because of the urgency, when you choose to sponsor a priority child, payment can only be made by Credit Card and Direct Debit. |
