Child Sponsorship: 2017 year in review

As the world’s first child sponsorship organization, Save the Children continues to boldly lead the way in the United States and around the world. Building on 100 years of sponsorship success, we partner with local communities to deliver innovative, best-in-class programs proven to disrupt poverty and drive change for children. We ensure children from birth through adolescence grow up healthy, learning and safe – their best chance for a lifetime of success. As we move from one sponsorship community to another, each is empowered to sustain these successes, so children continue to thrive. When governments and other organizations incorporate our successes into their own programs, even more children benefit.
