When you sponsor a child it not only provides a hot meal, clean water, discipleship, and basic medical care for the child, it also supports their family by inviting them through the gates of the CarePoint to receive training, discipleship and mentorship.

Consider linking arms with us to impact children, families, and communities in Eswatini, South Asia, or Guatemala!
