Part 3:

These 5 young women are in need of a sponsor. They are part of a brand new sponsorship program that has partnered with the MAC Group! To see a more detailed post about the sponsorship program, visit the Child Hope Zambia Blog.

There are currently 78 children in need of sponsors- with an additional 3,520 waiting to be signed up for the program! There are 3 different types of sponsorship based on the grade level of the child. These girls are part of the secondary program that only costs $15 a month for sponsorship. Sponsorship provides them with health benefits, hygiene kits, school supplies, school uniforms, school shoes, clothes, school fees, and more! The 9th graders need a sponsor from May until December of this year. After that, you are free to continue to correspond with them, and even help them further, if you wish. The 8th graders need a sponsor until December of 2011. Then, you are free to continue corresponding with them, and even help them further is you wish.

Child Hope Zambia has been helping children in the southern Zambian province for over 10 years! They provide children with 2 meals a day, HIV/AIDS awareness, health support, Income Generating Projects, communal gardens and a lot more! They have never had a sponsorship program until now. This sponsorship program will provide the children not only with the above physical items that I listed, but, it will, also, give the children a mentor and hope for the future!

There are another 73 children besides these 5 that need sponsors as well. They can all be found on the Child Hope Zambia blog on the upper left hand side of the page. You will see tabs that say "Sponsor a Girl", "Sponsor a Boy", and so on.

The great thing about having Child Hope Zambia as a Make a Change partner is that we can mold the program to what we would like to see. For example, do any of you have ideas on letter prompts that can be put on the primary child's letters to their sponsor? Something that will get the child to open up about himself and share his talents and ideas? I would love to hear it! I would like to have some letter writing templates in place by the middle of May so that these children can start writing their sponsors!
