Child Sponsorship FAQs

Yes! Login to you My World Vision account to send an email your Sponsored Child. 

Sending an email to your Sponsored Child works just like sending them a letter through the post; only you don't need to go to the post box. Whenever you email your Sponsored Child you should receive a reply. Your reply will come in the post, and it may take three to four months because post delays in developing countries are very common.
 

We'd love for you to tell everyone you know about your Sponsored Child and their progress. You can share your child's video and tell all your friends about your decision to sponsor. However, there are a few things you need to know to ensure your Sponsored Child and their families are kept safe. 

Please do not share anything that can identify your Sponsored Child – this includes their last name, village name, sponsorship ID or school name – and please do not try to get in touch via social media or any online channels. 

As a sponsor, you're making a huge difference to the life of your Sponsored Child and their community so, please join us in protecting your Sponsored Child and keeping their identity safe.

If you’re stuck on what to write, tell your Sponsored Child about your life in New Zealand. You can talk about things like:

• The suburb or town where you live.
• What you do at work or at school.
• What you and your family like to do for fun.
• Your pets, friends, hobbies.

Remember to keep your message short and simple. In many of the countries where we work, English is not the first language of the staff who will translate your message.
