Giving the Gift of Shelter, Nourishment and Education to Transform Lives
When Niamusha arrived at Children of Faith seven years ago, she had low self-esteem, could not read or write, and was not very social. With the love and support of a safe home, in the years since she arrived, she has worked hard at her schoolwork and blossomed into a leader. Today, thanks to generous donors, Niamusha is in college and will pursue a future every child deserves.

Make a Commitment to Sponsor a Child
Every child in our shelter has a unique story to tell, but they all have the same basic needs. Through sponsorship and your ongoing support you can help us provide shelter, nourishment, healthcare, education, and clothing to a child in need. You can give security in an insecure world. Although one-time sponsorships are gladly accepted, consider making a commitment to one special child. You can sponsor your child until he or she becomes strong, capable, and independent.
Contribute to the Scholarship Fund
As our children grow so has the need to provide for their college or trade school education. Every year we have students who will be graduating secondary school. Their dreams are big, and the need to support them is great. The scholarship fund provides support for these graduating students and more to come. Help us make their dreams a reality.

We Need Another Bus For Safe Transport
We have a bus and use it often, but it only holds half of our children. A bus provides the safest transportation on India’s congested roads. With a second bus we would be able to take all of the children on outings together around our community and to church.
