I would like give a plug about Compassion International. Karen and I sponsor our children through this organization. Not only do they help us connect to children who need financial assistance, they promise to make sure that most of our money get to the needs of the children rather than paying for administrative overhead cost. They also help us with the communication with our sponsored children through letters. Since our children do not speak or write English, Compassion workers help with the two-way translation. In addition to financial support, they hook up our children with a local church, providing them with a supportive community where they learn about the love of God. It’s a wonderful program. If you would like to support a needy child, please consider Compassion International.
