What Your Sponsorship Provides
When you sponsor a child in India, your donation supports the child's education in an excellent school, St. Mary's, as well as room and board at the school and medical aid for any disabilities he or she may have.  The children at St. Mary's School live at the school during the school year, and return home during breaks.  Therefore, all meals are provided to them during the school year.  Your donation will not only allow a child to receive a very good education, but will also allow him or her to experience the love of God in a faith-filled community.  Additional donations can be made here to help support children without sponsors as well as support additional needs of the children, such as gifts, uniforms and school supplies.

What You'll Receive
As a sponsor, you will receive a newsletter with general updates from our communities in India and Ecuador as well as a letter from your adopted child 3 times per year:  Easter, early fall and Christmas.  We also encourage you to send letters or cards to your adopted child through our website
