Compassion International

Do you want to help underprivileged children receive an education? I'm Angelyn, and my club and I are starting this GoFundMe to help improve children's education. My club, which is named Books, Crafts, and Buddies, is a book club where we also make crafts and buddies, hence the name. As Christian kids, we are so grateful to go to a Christian school, and want to benefit others who aren't as blessed to have an education. Recently, other kids have gone on mission trips to help support needy people. After hearing their testimony about how privileged we were, we decided to make a difference. To help support our cause, you can donate to this GoFundMe to help support children's education. This money will help benefit Compassion International, and any donation will be a huge part to making an impact. Some information about Compassion International: In response to the Great Commission, Compassion International exists as an advocate for children, to release them from their spiritual, economic, social and physical poverty and enable them to become responsible and fulfilled Christian adults. Although you may not be a Christian, may not agree with Christianity, or have a different religion, you can still help. I believe that we are all unified to helping make an impact for our world. So come and join me in making our broken world a little bit better. I have a new quote which is similar to what Neil Armstrong said, which is, "Helping improve the world may seem like a small step to changing it, but it's one giant leap for mankind."

Dear family & friends, I would love to celebrate my birthday this year by greatly improving the lives of a few remarkable souls. Particularly, the lives of my sponsor child Sofia & her family who live in southern Honduras.

Sofia is 11 years old. She has a huge heart for animals & and a passion for painting. Her favorite subjects are art and math. Sofia is receiving exceptional grades & her success in school will be the best chance she has to earn a scholarship in order to break the curse of extreme poverty in her lineage.

It is with great fortune that I have had the opportunity to sponsor Sofia through Compassion International for the last 5 years. While visiting in March, I witnessed the extremity of her poor living conditions & the unbearable heat that they endure daily.

The average working age in her area is between 20-35 years old. In Honduras, it is extremely difficult to find work beyond these ages. Although Sofias parents have many skills, such as masonry, welding, contracting & cooking, they are also in their early 40’s and have been eager to find work for quite some time.

My goal is to raise enough to meet Compassion International’s annual maximum donation of $1,100 by 4/30. I have started a go-fund me in honor of my sweet Sofia. It is with the utmost gratitude that I ask for your willingness to support this beautiful family in dire need. Even the smallest contribution makes a massive impact on their vitality.

For those of you that are able to donate, I am giving away handmade bracelets from Honduras. Rest assured, Compassion International will oversee this gift to ensure that your donations are spent wisely, allowing Sofia and her family to create a lasting opportunity to develop, without enabling. If you are unable to donate, please know that your prayers for these exquisite beings are appreciated by many & do not go unheard.

Jim was a loving husband, father, grandfather, son, and brother. He walked with God for over 40 years. His prayer was that Jesus would be glorified in his life. In our humble opinion, he has accomplished that. As a tribute to my dad, he would want people to support Compassion International. He was a long time member and avid supporter. We as a family are raising money to benefit Compassion International on my dad's behalf, and any donation will help make an impact. Thanks in advance for your contribution to this cause that meant so much to my dad.

hey everyone!! my name is alexanne, and I wanted to talk about an organization that is dear to my heart. Compassion International helps children who are in poverty learn about Jesus, and provides them with stuff they may not have. They can’t do it alone, and that is where we come in! Compassion International has sponsors for these precious children, and with your help, a child is able to learn about the love of Jesus. I have a goal I would love to raise of $1000, especially with Christmas coming, these children can learn about the birth of Jesus and be provided with things they need. If you could please consider sponsoring a child or giving some money so these children can have a wonderful Christmas, I would appreciate it so much. All of the funds from this will go directly to Compassion International. Matthew 19:14 says “But Jesus said, “Let the children come to me. Don’t stop them! For the Kingdom of Heaven belongs to those who are like these children.”
