Sponsorship rate change is essential to help kids thrive

After nine years, and ongoing efforts to reduce expenses, inflation continues to rise, and we’ve reached a funding gap we can’t ignore.

The pandemic, coupled with natural disasters and civil unrest, is crippling the most vulnerable who are losing steady income. Add rising costs of daily essentials to the equation, and it’s making it difficult to maintain basic care for children and families in our programs.

How rising costs impact kids you help

Your questions answered…

While we have done everything possible to ensure children continue to receive basic services through our sponsorship program, the in-country costs for school and medical supplies, construction materials, fuel and programming have increased significantly in the countries we provide support.
 
Inflation has caused the cost of basic items such as milk, bread and soap to reach an unaffordable amounts.
 

For monthly donations made through credit card or pre-authorized chequing account, your statement will automatically reflect the new rate on the date specified in the notification letter you received about the increase. Sponsors who make their donations quarterly, semi-annually and annually, will see the new rate reflected in the next reminder letter, after the effective date.

If you make your donation by cheque (current or postdated), it should reflect the new rate when your next sponsorship donation is due.
