Lives are transformed when you Stop for the One

Whether you sponsor a child, fund a school, or partner with a community, it all starts with stopping for one.

Meet a child you can sponsor

Your monthly donation meets the needs of children in our Iris centers around the world. Every gift impacts a child's life.

Join us and invest in the education of a child

Our schools and other educational programs are instrumental in changing lives and destroying poverty.

There is nothing more powerful than a community full of hope

We work with leaders to see that happen. Our vision is to see entire communities come to know Father God and understand His plans and purpose for them.

Why partner with
Stop for the One?

  • To serve the needs of children and the communities in which they live.
    Your generosity and support is changing the world and seeing children and communities encounter love and be transformed by the power of Jesus.

  • As the child sponsorship program for Iris Global, we are unwaveringly committed to the safety and protection of children, vulnerable communities, and anyone serving in our ministry. Iris Global has zero tolerance for incidents of abuse against children and other people in the communities we serve, either committed by our staff or others connected with our work. We abhor any misuse of power, status, or trusted position for any sexual or other exploitive purposes. We endeavor to expose and root out opportunities for abuse in our prevention and training efforts. Continuous improvement of safeguarding efforts, which emphasizes prevention of sexual exploitation and abuse is an ongoing effort in order to achieve the highest standards of protection.

  • Your contributions will be used to benefit the individual as well as his/her community. Iris combines the 'Stop for the One' gifts to empower community-based projects that improve the well-being of the center, school or village. Iris Global has learned that one of the most effective ways of helping the children is by bettering the community as a whole. We combine your gifts with those of others, rather than giving them directly to a child. This ensures that individuals in these communities will still benefit from the Iris Stop for the One program.

  • Stop for the One is a program of Iris Global, a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit organization in the United States. Any gifts made to Stop for the One by US citizens are tax deductible.: 

Why partner with
Stop for the One?

One person can make a difference

Give every baby the safe, healthy start they deserve.

We offer life-saving milk, nutrition support, and hands-on education so that both mother and baby can thrive. Whether a mother is too sick or too malnourished to nurse, or a newborn has lost their mother and is now lovingly cared for by family, we step in to make sure no child goes without the nourishment they need to grow.

Each child living in an Iris Center is no longer an orphan,

but a son or daughter adopted by Papa God and by our Iris family.

We provide:
• Food • Housing • Care • Spiritual discipleship

Education equips and empowers people of all ages to break the cycle of poverty.

Sponsoring Education also brings transformation to children’s lives and communities. Our schools provide both children and young adults with access to:
• Christ-centered education • Medical care • Spiritual discipleship

No two communities are the same, and we believe the solutions shouldn't be either.

We work side by side with local churches to understand what each community truly needs — then we roll up our sleeves together to make it happen. That might look like launching an after-school program for kids who need a safe place to learn, breaking ground on a farm, introducing microfinance so families can build their own financial futures, opening a preschool to give little ones the best possible start, or raising chickens to create a sustainable food source. Whatever it takes, we're in it together.
