Impact of Sponsorship

Many sponsorship programs focus only on helping select children rather than working toward long-term community development. What makes the World Vision sponsorship program unique is that your donations bless the lives of all children in the community where your sponsored child lives, through long-lasting sustainable development.

Community Transformation

Through our partnership with World Vision, we take a holistic approach, working alongside communities to tackle the root causes of poverty and create sustainable change. For every child sponsored through the program, another four children also benefit. We work to strengthen the whole community so all children and families can thrive.

Prior to moving to the USA, I was a professor at the National University of Colombia and served with the International Fellowship of Evangelical Students in Colombia for 16 years. Starting in 2001, I served as InterVarsity National Staff in the USA. I have a master’s degree in Christian Ministries, and I serve in Spiritual Direction to those who want to be fully present and available to God and receive His grace over them. My joy is to see professors and college students coming to know Jesus and being transformed into people that bring the good news of righteousness and justice to others.
