What to Expect as a Child Sponsor

You’ve signed up as a child sponsor, so…what’s next? Here is a glimpse into your journey as a child sponsor.

A personal and rewarding journey.

Sponsoring a child with World Vision is one of the best ways to give children better lives and futures. As a child sponsor, you will get:

  • A welcome pack containing your sponsored child’s photo and personal details, as well as information about your sponsored child’s community. You will receive an e-copy within 9 days and a hard copy within 21 days of your child sponsorship commencement.

  • Access to My World Vision portal, where you can view photo and video updates about your child sponsorship and update your personal details.

  • An Introductory Letter from your sponsored child from where he/she lives within 3 months of your child sponsorship commencement.

  • To build an enriching friendship with your sponsored child by writing letters, sending small gifts, and participating in sponsors’ visits (Group/Individual).

  • An Annual Progress Report between September and November with updates on your child’s progress, accompanied by a current photograph of him/her1.

  • A Yearly Greeting Card between November and February from your sponsored child2.

  • Vision Newsletters with local and international news from World Vision.

  • An Annual Review, which contains summaries of the work being done in all the projects that we support.

    • Notes:
    1 If you started sponsoring your child on or after 30 April this year, you will only receive an Annual Progress Report in the following year. 2 If you started sponsoring your child on or after 31 August this year, you will only receive the greeting card in the following year.
