Why write?
Receiving a letter quite literally makes our children’s day, week, or even year, as it shows your sponsor child that they are in your thoughts. Our children cherish letters so much that you will often find the them hung on a wall or tucked away in a safe place, so they can read them over and over again - they become a prized possession!
You can communicate and build a meaningful connection with your sponsor child from across the world. Words on a page are not just words on a page to your sponsor child, they are words that deliver hope, courage and so much joy!
Sponsor children love hearing about:
-
Your family - children, parents, pets, siblings
-
Fun facts and interesting things about your home country
-
Your hobbies
-
School experiences that made you happy
We encourage all sponsors to send photos, so that they can put a face to their sponsor family and see what they are up to!
Letters have the power to provide sponsor children with love, support and confidence.
