Child Waiting List

To provide immediate assistance to children living in emergency situations and to help you learn more about the children assisted through Child Foundation’s programs, we have created a special Child Waiting List. These children are waiting for your help. As you read the children’s stories below, you will notice that each child’s situation is similar, yet different. They are all experiencing poverty and hardship, but each child has risen above his or her circumstances to succeed academically. Please consider sponsoring or making a donation to one or more of these children in need. Click here to see a list of recently sponsored children.
