SPONSORSHIP
Why Sponsorship?
Since the beginning, our approach has evolved into one of community development, focused on strengthening families and community structures that make up a child’s environment. The individual sponsor-to-child relationship supports this work, with sponsor funds pooled to improve life in the communities where sponsored children live.
Today, support from sponsors is what allows us to remain in communities’ long term, building relationships with local partner organizations and focusing on children’s changing needs as they grow up. Support from diverse donors and institutions allows Wax Eye to expand and deepen its work with children and families even more. Sponsors’ friendship and encouragement further elevate Wax Eye’s impact for children, families and communities, increasing their well-being.
Worldwide, 570 million children live in extreme poverty, vulnerable to many factors that threaten their well-being. Children need protection, support, and care at each stage of childhood to stay safe, healthy, learning, and on track to achieve their potential. Wax Eye works with local organizations, governments, corporations, and individuals to help create the safe environments children need to thrive.
