SPONSOR A CHILD AND CHANGE A LIFE
Our child sponsorship programme gives you the opportunity to sponsor a child individually and give them the chance to get an education.
You will be the only sponsor of your sponsored child. You can develop a relationship with them through the exchange of letters. If you get a chance to go to Southeast Asia, you can also visit your sponsored child!
To become a sponsor, please fill in the form on this Every.org page. Every.org is the donation platform used by our partner Myriad USA. Child sponsorship is $35 per month, you will need to choose $35 on the form for your monthly payments.
Soon after, you will receive by email your Welcome Pack with more information about your sponsored child and where they live, but also a template to write your first letter to your child.
As a US taxpayer, you will receive a tax receipt for your donation from Myriad USA.
Ang Rinna, sponsored student of Children of the Mekong
Today, I am in the third year at the prestigious Institute of Technology of Cambodia (ITC) in Phnom Penh where I am studying for my engineering degree. I believe that the key to happiness is positive thinking, that is to say remembering that every problem has a solution; not being selfish; being motivated and committed.
