What will I receive as a child sponsor?

• A photograph of your sponsored child in Africa together with details about their family, background and circumstances.

• A Welcome Pack that will give you detailed information about the community your sponsored child lives in and information about how you can write to your sponsored child.

• Within a few weeks you will receive a letter from your sponsored child translated into English. If you write letters to your sponsored child, you will receive a letter back.

• Each year you will receive a personalised Christmas card to allow you to send greetings to your sponsored child. You will also receive a card from him or her.

• A number of weeks before your sponsored child's birthday you will receive a personalised card to send birthday greetings to him or her if you wish.

• Annual reports that give you a detailed picture about how your sponsored child is growing and another which outlines the community development.

• Online access to World Vision's annual report so you can see exactly how your money is being spent.

But most importantly, you will know that for a small gift every month you make a huge difference to the life of a child in Africa.
