No, if you want to be chosen by your sponsored child, you will not get to request specific characteristics of the child who will choose you. The empowering part of the process is that children get to choose their own sponsor.
After the choosing party, you'll get to find out why your new sponsored child chose you! If you would prefer to sponsor a child with certain attributes – such as a child from a particular country or with a special birthday, you still have the option to choose a child yourself.
