CHILD SPONSORSHIP WITH PLAN UK enables you to help make a lasting difference to the lives of the world’s poorest children and their communities.

But unlike many other forms of giving, you can actually see the difference you are making.

This is made possible by the personal connection you and your sponsored child share.

This connection is something that not only encourages children’s confidence, but can often be a rewarding and enlightening experience for the sponsor too.

YOUR £15 A MONTH CONTRIBUTION CAN HELP ACHIEVE THE FOLLOWING:

• Build schools, train teachers and provide textbooks to make sure children learn practical skills, which will benefit everyone
• Drill boreholes for clean water so children don’t die or get sick needlessly, help the community build medical centres and latrines and train community health workers
• Train each parent about the importance of hygiene and immunisation to give children a healthy start in life and protect them from disease
• Help local people gain access to cooperative village banks where they can save securely for the future or borrow small loans at affordable prices

WHAT YOU’LL RECEIVE AS A SPONSOR:

• A welcome pack containing information and pictures of the child you are sponsoring.
• Details of your sponsorship child’s family and community, so you can get a wider sense of their situation.
• Information on the types of projects you are funding and explanations of how this helps empower communities to meet the needs of all children.
• An annual letter, note or drawing from your sponsored child – if they are unable or are too young, a carer will do this on their behalf.
• Two editions annually of Plan’s World Family containing sponsors’ experiences and updates from around the world.
