For only $250 a year, you can give a child a gift of a lifetime – an education!
Currently, we sponsor over 600 children but still have a long waiting list! The sponsorship can be made by a one-time payment of the full $250 or in three payments of $100/$75/$75. However, if you need to work out other payment options, we will be glad to work with you. We ask that the sponsorship be paid by July (or at least the first payment, if possible) for the upcoming school year. All remaining balances are due by December. All uniforms and school books are ordered during the summer so that the children will have them on the first day of school.
The sponsorship money will pay for the child's tuition and school fees for one year - children must pay to go to school in Belize. It also buys 2 uniforms (required) and their school books. Each sponsored child will receive a new backpack filled with the school supplies that they will need for their grade - paper, folders, composition notebooks, pens, pencils, erasers, scissors, glue, coloring books & crayons for the younger ones, calculators for the older, etc.
In order for us to be able to communicate with our sponsors, we need the following information. The name or names that you want your sponsorship listed under, your mailing address, a phone number where you can be reached, and your e-mail address. We update our children's pictures annually in August and also the children will write letters to their sponsors two or three times a year. These will be sent to you as we get them. You can also send letters and/or pictures to the child you sponsor. They really enjoy getting pictures of the folks that are helping them go to school.
