YOU SPONSOR. WE EMPOWER. THEY IMPACT.

At the heart of our sponsorship programs for children, education, or communities, the foundation always comes back to stopping for the one.

Sponsor a Child

ONE PERSON CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE

Making a difference starts and ends with us. We can make a change in the life of an individual child and collectively change a village and a nation. Your tangible investment in a child, a classroom, or community will have a lasting impact.

Rolland & Heidi Baker

Heidi knew that if we each stopped for someone, millions would be reached by the practical love of God and the message of Jesus everyday .
