My Compassion Kids
We’ve had two Compassion International kids for over a decade, and the experience has been fantastic. They are a great group with a real heart for children. Their work makes a material difference in the lives of the kids.
My cute CI Kids.
I love my 2 kids! Uwimana is from Rwanda and a sweet, sweet girl. She has struggled in school and hardship at home, but has come a long way from when we first sponsored her. Helio is a handsome boy from Brazil who loves soccer and art. He lives with his Grandmother and every letter from him comes with a beautiful picture.
Emily thinks of them as being a sort of brother and sister and sometimes plays with their pictures, making them talk as if they were really with her. She mentions them often enough to let us know that their lives and struggles have had an effect on her, even at 4.
For a few bucks a month, its a great way to make a personal difference in the lives of people who really need it.

Thanks for sharing this with us! And thanks for speaking up for children in need!
Thank you! Without you guys I never would have “met” these two wonderful kids… You folks are awesome!
Great looking kids. As a child sponsor myself, I appreciate the love you express for two kids who without you would have had a much different life.
Thanks Kirk – they are indeed special to us… I’m very thankful for the opportunity to know these kids. I do love them very much…
And, thank you for your sponsorship as well! With enough of us sponsoring kids, I think we can make a real difference for the future – not only for our individual kids, but for entire regions as well. I’m thankful to CI for making that possible.
Thanks again for dropping a note!
Cheers,
Andy
