Sponsor support can motivate children to be inspiring leaders

Watch this choir sing a song, which reminds us how the kindness of sponsors can change lives

A sponsor’s support gives young people around the world the courage to dream big and inspire others to do the same. The video below from U.S.-based choir group Voices of Hope Children’s Choir reminds us of the power of encouragement through the song “Be a Light.”

“Don’t hide in the dark, you were born to shine. In a world of hate, be a light,” sings the choir in perfect harmony.

Children Believe sponsors are the ultimate support. They make it possible to create thriving communities, advance child rights and protection, promote equality for girls and partner with kids so they can make lasting change. Then, they send support through letters giving sponsored children the encouragement to reach for their dreams.

You can help make a difference, too. Learn about child sponsorship today.
