One of the most rewarding moments in a sponsor’s life is when they receive a letter from their sponsored child. We encourage all of our children to dive into a unique relationship with their sponsor through letters and pictures. Yesterday, the Daraja kids sat down and spent some time writing to their sponsors….it is one of our favorite things to help facilitate! They have so much fun AND it helps them in developing their writing and English-speaking skills…a win win! We look forward to sharing these letters with you all in the near future!

A Note from Our Founder
If we’ve spent any time together, you’ve probably heard me this before: pay attention to who walks through the front door.
That was some early advice from my friend, Lanny, and it held the test of time. It’s important to keep a lookout for people suddenly crossing your path – God just might be introducing you to someone special. So, when Chris Joiner walked through our front door, I paid attention.
In 2021, Chris reached out just to have a conversation. Over a few breakfasts, Chris and I discussed our shared passion for changing the way the West church engages the poor. At the time, Chris was working for another non-profit organization, but it quickly became clear that we both sought to create a lasting, meaningful impact on the lives of the poor.
