SPONSORSHIP WITH
THE 25 PROJECT
The 25 Project empowers orphaned and vulnerable children with the hope of the Gospel, the love of community, and the tools they need to grow and thrive. We partner with trusted ministry leaders around the world to care for and disciple orphaned and vulnerable children in their own communities.

WE ALL NEED PEOPLE IN OUR LIFE TO ROOT FOR US.
As a sponsor, you are part of a team of people cheering on a child who has very little support or resources. Your role as a sponsor is not merely a financial one – you serve as a friend and advocate.
As a sponsor, you can get to know the child you support by exchanging letters and sending care packages. You may also wish to meet them in person by joining us on a 25 Project Trip. The friendship and encouragement you give to a vulnerable child has been proven to make a tremendous difference to their confidence, academic success, and spiritual development.
YOUR SUPPORT EMPOWERS A CHILD WITH THE TOOLS THEY NEED TO THRIVE, INCLUDING:
- The opportunity to learn about Jesus and grow in relationship with Him through weekly gatherings for worship and discipleship.
- A loving place to belong among a vibrant support system of ministry leaders and staff, fellow children, and a local church.*
- Meals and/or food assistance for the child and his/her family*
- Access to medical care
- Access to quality education and supplies
- The opportunity to prepare for a better future by attending university or vocational training
- Support and encouragement from you, their sponsor, through letters and care packages.
- The opportunity to attend yearly camps (led by trip members to play, be creative, and learn more about God’s Word.)


YOUR ROLE AS A SPONSOR GIVES YOU THE OPPORTUNITY TO:
- Be a part of sharing the hope of Jesus with a vulnerable child who may not know Him.
- Impact a vulnerable child’s future by investing in their education.
- Get to know the child you support by exchanging letters with them.
- Witness your sponsored child’s growth and development over time through pictures and videos.
- Receive ministry updates from your sponsored child’s in-country ministry leaders.
- Meet your child in person if you choose to join a 25 Project Trip.
- See your financial gifts be used to build up God’s kingdom around the world!
FAQS ABOUT SPONSORSHIP
There are different types of orphans depending on their particular situation. Following is a description of the types of orphans:
- Paternal Orphan: A child whose father has died.
- Maternal Orphan: A child whose mother has died.
- Double Orphan: A child whose parents have both died.
- Social Orphan: A child who has been abandoned by family.
Vulnerable children are those children who live with family, but their family is not able to adequately provide for their basic needs.
We strongly believe in and strive to maximize all funds given to fully minister to each child entrusted to our care. Minus credit/debit card or ACH (auto draft) processing fees charged by our bank (of which we have no control), the remaining funds are directed to specifically minister to each child and run the sponsorship ministry. In order to adequately cover the entire cost of each child's care, we actually are required to raise extra funds in addition to sponsorship dollars.
The 25 Project is committed to maximizing all of the funds we receive from you to best serve each child in the ministry. For this reason, 100% of your sponsorship gifts go directly to the sponsorship ministry.
If you choose to use a credit card, debit card, or auto draft for your sponsorship gifts, a fee of 3% (for cards) or 1% (for check drafts) is charged to the sponsorship ministry. To offset this cost, you may choose to add an extra 1% or 3% to your monthly gifts or consider giving by check.
