Can I send packages to my sponsored child?

 

Due to high postal charges, loss, theft and damages, we do not accept packages. Instead, you could perhaps enclose stickers and ballons in your letter. We encourage sponsors to give additional monetary gifts to their sponsored children for special occassions, to address specific needs or simply as an act of love. Local project workers purchase gifts on behalf of the sponsors and make certain that these funds are used appropriately. As a guideline, we ask sponsors to keep these contributions upto £10 /€15 for each child and limit their gift giving to twice a year.

What should I avoid writing or sending?

 

As a sponsor, you have many opportunities to communicate with the child you sponsor and we encourage you to do so. When you communicate with him or her, however, we ask you to provide comments and materials consistent with the Christian values and philosophies. We will not forward photographs and materials promoting what is contrary to biblically based lifestyles, communications that advocate another religious worldview and other activities that are generally regarded as inappropriate for children.

Can I correspond with my sponsored child?

 

A short letter of introduction with either a personal or family photograph, may be a way of starting to develop a relationship with your sponsored child. Sponsored children value their sponsors' photos and letters and keep them as treasured possessions. Correspondence with your child will benefit him or her from knowing that someone in addition to his or her family really cares. Your words of encouragement will make a big difference to your child.

When you set up your account we will give you an address that you can send mail to. Your child will write back to you, but please allow some time to elapse before receiving the response of your child, this may depend on several factors like communication network, long distances, remote locations and inadequate postal services, depending on where the child lives.

What is child sponsorship?

 

 

A child sponsor is someone like you who has made the decision to personally invest in the life of a child in need. War, drought, famine and disease have left thousands of children orphaned or in extreme poverty. As a child sponsor, your monthly gift will enable your child to access basic needs such as nutritious food, healthcare, clothing, education, social skills development, etc.

When you become a child sponsor, two lives are changed forever. Your sponsorship can help your child to develop a sense of confidence and self-worth with the love you express through letters and prayers. This is because the child gets to know that besides his or her biological family there is someone else who cares and can provide for his or her basic needs.

VOCORI ensures that there is a real connection between you and the specific child you support. The child you sponsor will know your name, write to you and benefit directly from your monthly sponsorship. Your life shall be changed forever because of the great joy of seeing the positive development changes in your child as he or she grows up. This will touch you, due to the fact of the significant role you have played in his or her development.
