Passport to Hope Child Sponsorship Update
242 Children Registered as of 11/9/08 

ParentChildhands.jpgYou can really make a difference in a child's life by sponsoring a child today.  More than half of the children are still awaiting sponsors. 

The children receive new shoes, free clothing, food and spiritual formation classes thanks to your gift.  Some of these kids are so poor they don't own socks and have no undergarments.  This is not a distant problem in a far away place, but here in our own community.  Homelessness affects everyone. 

How Can I Sponsor a Child?
It's easy ... you can
sponsor a child online at the Click and Pledge secure website.  Cost of the sponsorship is only $30 per month per child.  Or call us at 703.659.1636 or contact us via e-mail:  DivineMercyNow@gmail.com

More about Passport to Hope

Passport to Hope Sponsorship
Every child sponsored will receive clothing, new shoes, grocery and gas card assistance for his/her family.  Spiritual formation classes also help the families grow in faith and mercy toward their neighbors.  Sponsorships will last one year. 

Anticipated Enrollment
Each day families come to see us asking for food for their children and shoes for school.  We anticipate 500 children enrolled before year's end. 

Donations
Your financial donation will ensure the resources are there to provide for them throughout the year. Corporate sponsorships of larger amounts will be used to help families with financial assistance. 

VolunteersWe have experienced a great influx of children who are academically challenged.  Some children are 10 years old and can't read.  Others can't recognize colors, shapes or speak in complete sentences.  Each one of these children is a gift from God.  If you have been VIRTUS trained through the Diocese of Arlington, Virginia and would like to volunteer an hour with a child, please contact us via e-mail at divinemercynow@gmail.com

The Passport to Hope is not about numbers, it's about children.  Your sponsorship let's these children know that someone cares.  Please pray for them.
