THE MISSION
THE SPONSORSHIP PROGRAM
Transforming Nations, One Child At A Time
The Sponsorship program is an opportunity for you to directly invest into the lives of children in our programs.
Everyday, The Mission serves over 400 children, providing education, warm meals, loving relationships, and a safe place to experience the love of Jesus. For $38/month, you can partner with us to continue providing these essential resources for children in Mexico and Romania.
Due to guidelines issued by the Mexican government, we are legally unable to share photos or personal details of the children in our orphanage in Mexico, online or in print material. Although these guidelines only affect some of our children, of the over 500 that we provide care for, that is why some of the children’s photos are blurred.
Top 5 sponsorship faqs
Does my $30 go directly to my sponsored child?
Your monthly donations go into a general child fund that will benefit your child as well as aid in caring for other children that do not have sponsors yet. All sponsorship contributions do go directly into that fund and not into any other area of the ministry. Learn more about The Mission’s financial transparency in our Annual Report.
Do I have to write them letters or send gifts?
No, that is up to you! Some sponsors love the personal connection and some prefer to not do that.
Am I the only one that sponsors this child?
No. Depending on what programs the child is involved with the cost to care for each child varies. For example, the care we provide for the children in our orphanage than for those who are in our feeding program. For that reason, some children do have multiple sponsors per child because we do need more than $30 a month to care for their needs.
At what age do children “age out” of The Sponsorship Program?
Once a child turns 18, they are given the option to move into our on-campus transition home. They are given the option to attend our School of Missions or continue on their education at a university. Children remain in The Sponsorship Program until they choose to move out of the transition home.
Are all of these children in the orphanage?
No. Our sponsorship program serves the children in all of our programs located in Mexico, Nicaragua and Romania. That includes orphan care, after school programs, feeding programs, elementary school, as well as jr high and high school.

breakdown of operational expenses
From the very beginning, we have relied on His faithfulness and the help of like-minded people. The Mission is unique in the sense that all of our operations teams are located on The Mission bases; we have no U.S. administrative headquarters. It has been a privilege to work alongside missionaries who have left their homes to serve, as well as nationals who are fiercely fighting for their own nations.
