2- sponsor a child
A Simple Act of Kindness, A Lifetime of Change – Child Sponsorship Matters
When you sign up for Global Compassion Child Sponsorship, you’re not just investing in the well-being of a single child. You’re making a profound and lasting impact on an entire community. Imagine the difference you can make by sponsoring a child in the Mathare Valley of Kenya, where approximately 100,000 children reside in slums.
Eastside sponsorship provides comprehensive support to these children, including education, school supplies and uniforms, nutritious meals, medical care, health workshops and counseling for their entire families, Vacation Bible School and camp experiences. By sponsoring a child, you’re not just giving them a better life; you’re empowering them to break the cycle of poverty and build a brighter future for themselves and their loved ones.
3 - pray for global teams
This summer, Eastsiders are unleashing compassion around the world—bringing hope, love, and practical support to communities in need. You can make a meaningful impact by joining us in prayer. Your prayers provide encouragement, strength, and covering for our teams as they step into challenging and life-changing work.
