Sponsor a Child Today

Child sponsorship connects you personally to a child you can pray for by name and help meet critical
needs - changing a child's life and future generations.

The Impact of Sponsorship

“It has changed my life in the sense that I know how great God is… One day I might be the one who is out their sponsoring someone, sharing hope with them, and my story will be a testimony some day.”

How Sponsorships Change These Statistics

ACCESS TO EDUCATION

African Vision of Hope is 100% committed to serving the most vulnerable children. We serve in one of the cruelest places to be a child, the rural and shanty compounds of Zambia. There are over 4,200 children in African Vision of Hope’s 5 schools.

NUTRITION, WATER, MEDICAL

Each school provides a nutritious meal and clean water to children every day. We focus on child health through healthcare and education of HIV AIDS, malaria, and sanitation. We tackle the causes of poverty, not just the symptoms, that brings lasting change.

INTEGRITY OF TEACHERS

African Vision of Hope staff are local leaders who long to see students exceed the expectations of the slums where they live. They know each child and their story. Our students see their teachers as a trusted counselor, mentor, and role model of someone who has succeeded from their same challenges.
