Child sponsorship invites a person like us to support and help look after the well-being of a child in need from another country — until that child and community become self-sufficient.
There are several ways to help out through World Vision. One of the ways that I would like to share is a fun way to help. Choose from a selection of beautiful, handcrafted gifts and your donation will go where it makes the biggest impact. They have so many great gifts and things to chose from.
By doing this, you will be helping by giving goats, fruit trees or even soccer balls to those in need. For sharing this with you, I received a gorgeous handcrafted necklace. You can choose to make a one time donation, a monthly donation or sponsor a child. There are several options that will fit anyone needs.
A SIMPLE GIVEAWAY!
One SIMPLE reader will win this handcrafted necklace. Enter below:

January 6, 2016 at 4:59 pmYes. We’re do not have very much money to give (though we do contribute when we can financially ~ but we are frequent contributors to drives for clothing, food, books, household items. We volunteer weekly at a local church Soup Kitchen (we do a lot of the cooking and food preparation) as well as at a local animal Animal Rescue Shelter and the Senior Center. In Summer we participate in a community gardening project for both beautification and food.
We do what we can ~ but really wish we had more to share financially ~ because so often money/ cash is what’s really needed..
