What If...you changed a life through Child Sponsorship?

What if children like five year old Anita could learn to read and write at school instead of staying home to care for their younger siblings?

What if they were given time to play with their friends instead of travelling miles to collect clean water each day?

What if their mothers could afford the medicines they needed when they were sick instead of watching them suffer?

What if children everywhere were able to just be children?

For just 50p a day, you could sponsor a child like Anita and help give them the future they deserve.

Become an ActionAid child sponsor today and find out how you can bring positive change to a child like Anita.

After 10 years as an ActionAid child sponsor, Chris Evans decided to visit Narok, and meet Makoi, the child she knew so well from her letters. Watch the video of the trip that inspired her to do even more for the village, raising money for the school library where Makoi and Siana study.

What you'll receive from ActionAid child sponsorship

ActionAid child sponsorship is the start of an incredible one-to-one relationship between you and child in the developing world.

• After you become a sponsor, we'll introduce you to a child with a photograph and some information about their life and the problems they face.
  
  
• Then you can then look forward to regular updates direct from the community. You will get two personal messages a year from your sponsored child, along with reports about the difference you are making to so many lives.
