SPONSORSHIP FAQS

WHAT SPONSORSHIP OPTIONS DO I HAVE? 

You can be a child, village or family sponsor with SOS Children’s Villages. Child sponsors help support an individual child and give the child a loving family, a safe home and the opportunity for a successful future. Village sponsors contribute to a community of children by providing support to an SOS village and its programs. Family sponsors work to stop child abandonment and family separation before it starts by providing vulnerable single mothers and families with the support they need so families can stay together.

WHY SHOULD I SPONSOR WITH SOS CHILDREN’S VILLAGES? 

When you become a child or village sponsor with SOS Children’s Villages, you will know that your funds are being put to work to directly impact the child or children you are supporting. When you become a family sponsor, you will know that your monthly contribution will be used to make a difference for the families who need it the most, from single mothers struggling to support their children in the face of drought in Africa, to refugees fleeing disaster in Venezuela and Syria.  

SOS Children’s Villages has been helping children since 1949 and providing a care model that has been proven to work. As a recipient of the Mother Teresa Gold Medal and a Nobel Peace Prize nominee, SOS Children’s Villages is an organization you can trust.
