Fresh lemons, sunshine, marigold's, daisies, roses, goldfish, Dick Tracy's hat and overcoat, pepper's, school buses, lemonade, Tinkies, submarine, sweet corn-on-the-cob, and happy children around the world playing in the dirt, the street, or anywhere available.

Compassion International has over one million fully sponsored children and there are a million more that need someone like you, or your family, to send them some sunshine.

For the cost of a shirt from your favorite pro-ball team (not a jersey, just a good t-shirt), or three, medium-size latte's a week, or a dinner for two at your local cafe (not a restaurant), you can provide an education, school uniform, daily hot meal, vocation training in a practical trade, spiritual training, and more - - all through Compassion's unique child development program.

You can correspond with your child on a regular basis and send birthday, Christmas, and family gifts to your child. The average family of a child in Compassion comes from a family who's income is less than two dollars a day.

Compassion also leads trips around the globe for sponsors to meet, face-to-face, and spend time in country with their child. In 2008 more than four thousand sponsors met their child on life altering trips to Tanzania, Peru, India, and many other countries where Compassion works in partnership with over five thousand churches.
