Sign up by 31 December and give a child the chance to choose YOU.
Some children wait years to be chosen by sponsors. But what would happen if, instead, they got to choose? For the first time, you can give a child the chance to choose YOU as their sponsor. Chosen Sponsorship gives children the power to take hold of their future, to create change in their own lives, and to transform their community.
Sign up by 31 December to be part of the next choosing party in Pajule, Uganda.
Chosen is a child's unique opportunity to transform their life - and yours. See what happens when a child, like Rachel, chooses you as their sponsor.
Your name and photo are sent to a community in need where a big choosing party is held.
At the choosing party we let the children pick which person, couple, or family they want to be their sponsors from the photos displayed. Then we let you know who chose you! You'll also find out why you were chosen.
Your donation is pooled with the donations of other sponsors to support community projects such as the installation of clean water taps, improved healthcare facilities, and more to make sure your sponsored child can achieve their dreams.
We provide regular updates on how you are transforming your sponsored child's life including videos and photos. You'll receive letters from your sponsored child, and if you'd like, you can even write back and send birthday cards.

It feels like an honour. Out of all these people, something drew her to me.
Brianna
Chosen sponsor
"He is a doctor, and that's why I like them, and they are all smiling. I saw many but have chosen the best! I love you!" - Milli, five, Bangladesh
Five-year-old Milli doesn't know for sure if her sponsor is a doctor, but because his shirt is tucked in, and he wears glasses, she assumes that he is. Choosing her sponsor has empowered Milli to follow her own dream of one day becoming a doctor. She sees her own family in the photo she chose, "I love them because they have three in the family and we have three in the family. They have a daughter, and I am a daughter."

In most cases, it will be throughout their childhood and into their teens.

As a project comes to a close we will let you know of the achievements in the community so you can celebrate with us.
