Every child deserves the chance to thrive and reach their full potential. Unfortunately, for many children in Ecuador, this opportunity is hindered by numerous challenges. However, research has shown that when children have a sponsor, someone who cares for their lives, their well-being experiences notable improvements. Join us as we discover the transformative power of Project M:25’s Amigos Child Sponsorship program and the opportunity it provides for people like you to become an Amigo, a positive role model for children on the other side of the world, while encouraging resilience and assuring a child’s better future.
When you become an Amigo, you make a child’s life better, and they will never forget what you did for them.
What’s the impact of an Amigo in a child’s education journey?
As an Amigo, Project M:25 Child Sponsorship program, you have a tamarable impact on children’s education. Justin knows his sponsor, Andrew, is continuously praying for him and last year, he sent him a special gift: a letter with a photograph of Andrew’s family. Justin is learning Math and Science in school and when he receives a letter from his Amigos, he’s encouraged to follow his dreams. He wants to be a chef and feed his community. A simple gift with a great impact.
Did you know that sponsored children are up to 40% more likely to finish secondary school and up to 80% more likely to graduate college?
What’s the impact of an Amigo in a child’s health conditions?
When Fred’s sight’s conditions worsened and hindered his ability to see, he was hopeless. He could not read his homework and his school tests came back with low grades. Your partnership allowed us to connect him with a local doctor who prescribed a new pair of eyeglasses. As the first person who’s got them in his family, his parents did not think Fred’s problem had a solution. Due to poor medical facilities, many children do not get proper medical attention and impact their school performance and overall well being. Now, those days where Fred could not see the whiteboard on his school, are part of the past.
Your monthly donations allow us to connect with local providers and assist children when medical conditions emerge.
Empowering children and youth.
Along with education and health, your partnership helps children attend programs like Kids Club and Give Light, where they find support and guidance to the local youth population. According to a survey conducted with youth, an inspiring 72% reported benefiting from the youth network. They experienced positive personal growth, improved social competencies, stronger peer relationships, and even spiritual growth. By fostering a sense of belonging and empowerment, child sponsorship has created a protective environment where children can thrive and overcome adversity.
One of the key components of child sponsorship programs is the participation of children in after-school programs. These programs offer a safe and nurturing space where children can engage in educational, recreational, and skill-building activities. They provide opportunities for personal and academic growth, fostering a love for learning and developing essential life skills. Through after-school programs, children receive the support they need to succeed and become well-rounded individuals.
