Right now, for $54 a month, you can change a child's life – and yours. You can help a girl to fight for her rights and break free from poverty, for good. Your support will help her stay safe from child marriage, go to school, grow healthy, and become all she was born to be. Choose a Child or sign up to Be Chosen by a child as their sponsor.
Monika is on a mission to stop child marriage because someone like you sponsored her at 5 years old. She knows her rights and now she's fighting for other girls like her.
"I've stopped 10 child marriages, but thousands more girls urgently need your help," she says.
Monika is now president of the youth forum in her community, and her team go village to village helping girls find a way out of forced marriages.
“Child marriage can be prevented if we all work together,”says Monika, whose own sister and mother were both forced to marry very young. Your sponsorship today can help a girl write her own future.
Please, join Kiwis rising up to help 1,000 girls fight for their rights. Sponsor a girl like Monika and help her become the force of change she was born to be.
Instead of choosing a child to sponsor, you can sign up to be chosen by a child. Send in your photo and empower a child to choose you as their sponsor!
When you sign-up to be Chosen™, you'll step into a life-changing connection with your sponsored child and their community. You'll empower a child to make lasting change in their own life – and even in yours. It all starts with a first choice.
It's fun to find out who chose you and why. "Because you look smart" and "You're a united and cute family" are just some of the sweet reasons that children have shared so far. It's a life-changing first choice you can give a child today.
