We have been sponsoring Mame for about 7 or 8 years now through
Compassion International. He has grown into a young man and
we have had the privilage to watch this through his photos and
letters. Compassion International is a Christian outreach
program that provides health care, training, nutrition and hygiene,
learning opportunities, and a chance to develop a relationship with Christ.
I highly recommend this program. If you sponsor a child you will receive
updates and letters from the child and have the opportunity to send your
own letters and photos to the child. It is a very rewarding program
and for those looking to expand your own world and help a child in need go to:

This is a very low pressure organization that is highly respected.
What a great idea for the Christmas season!
