Too busy to change the world?

World Vision

Flooding in Africa: World Vision Responds

----------------------------------------

Dear Sponsor,

You may be too busy to change the world, but you can do ONE thing — you can share your story.

We're looking for thousands of sponsors to create awareness in their churches or small groups for the millions of children living in poverty. And we need you to speak on their behalf.

Sharing the story of a child whose life has been changed is easy! It's the story of YOUR sponsored child!

Nervous about speaking in church? Show a video, and let the images tell the story!

Not sure who to talk with? Start with your pastor, who may surprise you with his or her support of World Vision!

Concerned about the cost? No worries — it's free!

How do you get started? Order a Planning Kit today, which includes:

  • A step-by-step guide about how to plan an event
  • A guide for church leaders to give to your pastor
  • Posters
  • Videos
  • Suggested bulletin text, and more!

Can you make a difference? YES! Whether you find one sponsor or a thousand, every child is valuable, and we want each one to know the hope that comes from being sponsored.

Read about Nichole, who has blessed others by sharing sponsorship at her church through the A Child is Waiting program:

"I prayerfully considered 'A Child is Waiting' after looking on the World Vision Web site for ways to serve locally. I am so impressed and pleased that World Vision has found a way for ordinary and busy people to help with your effort.

I have always wanted to go into the mission field, but being a mother of three small kids, have found it to be quite difficult. This felt like a great way to help serve God's purpose, so thank you for the opportunity."

– Nichole Patterson, A Child is Waiting volunteer

There are thousands of children waiting for a sponsor. Let God use you in this way. Whether you connect one child or 100 with a new sponsor, imagine the blessing you will feel knowing that another child's life will be changed.

Grateful for your partnership,
