STORIES FROM SPONSORED CHILDREN

November Mother in Cambodia

Khoun didn’t expect her own life to be transformed. At first this mother in Cambodia was just grateful for the chance for her 12-year-old daughter Sievminh to become a sponsored child through Food for the Hungry (FH). Khoun and her husband Chanthon struggled to provide for their 3 children. Their income as rice and cassava farmers didn’t provide enough resources for the family.

STORIES FROM SPONSORS OF CHILDREN

Whithing Family

The Whiting Family: Giving with Joyful Hearts

The Whiting family first heard about FH five years ago at a concert. They started sponsoring a child from Ethiopia and through child sponsorship, they found out about other areas of FH’s work. Because the Whitings live on a working farm, they really connected with giving animals through the FH Gift Catalog.

Sponsor Dubs Uganda Visit A Piece of Heaven

The entire village came to greet us with cheers and ululations (a joyous howl) as we walked down a little path to Annet’s home. I knew Annet as soon as I saw her and she kneeled for the traditional greeting of the women in her region of Uganda. I had tears in my eyes; it was a quite overwhelming moment.

SEE HOW YOU CAN TRANSFORM A LIFE

At Food for the Hungry, we believe that when a community is equipped to care for its most vulnerable members, everyone is served and poverty is eliminated. We’ve learned that child sponsorship is one of the most successful ways for communities to rise out of poverty. Our child sponsorship program connects supporters with children whose lives, families, and communities they can invest in to bring about holistic transformation.

Travel to Guatemala to meet Natalia. She is a sponsored child with Food for the Hungry. In this video, she’ll share what is now different in her community. Studies said her and other children in her community would suffer from malnutrition like their parents, and would likely skip lots of school because of it. Thankfully everything changed. When Food for the Hungry entered her community, the parents were equipped with the skills, knowledge, and tools to better care for their children.
