Can You See What I See?

The miracle of child sponsorship happens when children like Julian flees brutal conflict , runs with surviving family members to another nation, are accepted in our HOPE/RWC School, and receive their first letter from their new sponsoring family. The sense of joy and hope for such children is reflected in their spirit and their very countenance, as they move on into a brighter future.

Go to www.jambosana.com.au to view other children waiting for a sponsor!
