Before you commit

Sponsorship questions

We encourage sponsors to commit for the duration of the child's education, whether primary or secondary. You can adjust or end your sponsorship at any time.

Absolutely. Many sponsors choose to support several children.

We understand that circumstances change. If you need to end your sponsorship we will work to find a new sponsor so that the child's education continues uninterrupted.

We provide regular updates on how your sponsorship is being used, conduct annual audits and maintain transparent financial records.

We appreciate the sentiment, but we encourage monetary donations instead of physical gifts so that all children in the programme are treated equally. Special occasions can be recognised through our gift fund.

Yes. We welcome sponsors to visit the centre and meet their sponsored children in person, subject to our child protection policies. Please arrange any visit with us in advance.
