Sponsor a Child

Sponsor With Student At The School of Hope in Guatemala

Student sponsorship is the life-force which powers the work of Education For The Children. From purchasing books and equipment, paying teachers' salaries to providing nutritious meals each day. The school and further education scholarships recieve no government funding.

Monthly sponsorship supports an individual child’s educational, hygiene, nutritional and psychological needs. We have different levels of sponsorship to suit all budgets and at every stage. From a five year old ‘Prepa’ just starting out, to a student hoping to be the first in their family to ever attend university.

What does it mean to sponsor a child?

Whichever sponsorship level you choose, we provide written or video updates. Should you wish, you also have the opportunity to send messages, videos or even visit Guatemala to meet your student and their family in-person. If you have a family of your own, sponsorship is a great way to introduce your children to a different culture, language and the life-changing power of supporting each other.

We know how busy life is, so if you'd prefer not to receive updates, there’s also the option to contribute monthly without being allocated a student.

I was fortunate enough to visit this school on a trip to Guatemala pre-pandemic. Totally fell in love with it and have sponsored two students ( one at a time). It’s one of my favorite things I’ve done. You get letters and photos of and from your student and the sponsor coordinator is fantastic at keeping you up to date. I can’t think of a better way to spend some money on something meaningful and cool!
