Sponsor a Child


Thank you for showing an interest in becoming a child sponsor. Child sponsorship is an amazing experience that has the power to transform other peoples lives, as well as your own. By reaching out to children struggling to overcome unimaginable hardships, you'll also be joining a steadily growing number of child sponsors. Together, we can help children and their communities build a brighter future for themselves through their own skills, hard work and endeavour.

There are 154 children attending the Lisa Kent Memorial Nursery School, divided between three classes and also local primary schools. We currently have in excess of 70 children sponsored. Without sponsorship their families would be unable to send them to school, average earnings in The Gambia are less than 50p per day.

What will I get?

In return you will receive a photograph of your child, together with their family details and copies of their school report at the end of the academic year.
