Child Sponsorship
Change a child’s future forever by becoming the reason they learn, grow, and dream without fear.
What is Child Sponsorship?
Child Sponsorship is not just about money; it is about standing beside a child with faith in their future. At Hand in Hand, your monthly support helps a child stay in school, eat well, and feel seen, valued, and safe. When you sponsor a child, you are not helping them survive; you are helping them thrive and grow. You become their voice in the world, sending hope through letters, updates, and care that whisper, “You are not alone.” Whether it is a girl rebuilding her life after loss or a boy fighting hunger and abandonment, your support becomes a lifeline.
Poverty is loud, let your love be louder.
Millions of children across India live unheard, silenced by poverty, hunger, neglect, and fear. But they do not have to walk that road forever. Child Sponsorship is your way of saying, “You matter. Your life matters.” It is not just about a meal or a schoolbook. It is about breaking the cycle, one child, one story at a time. It is about showing up where no one else does and saying yes to the dreams poverty tries to crush. Because when you choose to care, you don't just change their world, you change yours too.
1 in 5 children in India never finish primary school.
Girls are twice as likely to drop out after 6th grade because of early marriage or poverty.
Children without steady support are three times more vulnerable to abuse and exploitation.
Millions go to bed hungry, making learning — and simply growing up — an uphill battle.
Your Monthly Support Provides

Child-Centered

Our work is carried out by local volunteers, teachers, and community leaders who understand each child’s challenges and strengths firsthand.
Trust-Led
Transparency guides everything we do. Regular updates, letters, and open communication keep you closely connected to the child you support.
At Hand in Hand, we walk with every child until they are strong enough to stand on their own.
Why Sponsor a Child?
Through sponsorship, you become part of a child’s life story, making sure they are never forgotten, never alone, and never without opportunity. In many under-resourced communities, children grow up surrounded by hardship, empty plates, broken classrooms, unsafe streets, and dreams crushed by poverty. Your sponsorship changes that. It becomes a bridge of hope, providing nutritious meals, education, clean water, and the care of mentors who nurture each child emotionally and socially.More than support, sponsorship tells a child, “You matter. Your life is worth fighting for.” It rebuilds trust, restores confidence, and helps them believe in a future they have never seen but now dare to imagine, because someone like you chose to stand beside them.
