What is One Church, One Village?

It's an in-depth, guided plan that helps your church develop a meaningful, lasting relationship with a specific village in Africa or the Caribbean. Your congregation will play an essential role in the sustainable, long-term development of a village by partnering with the people living there.

Here are some helpful tips to make the most of your sponsorship!

• Gift-giving options
• Frequently asked questions

BENEFITS FOR YOUR CHILD

When you sponsor a child, your monthly gift goes into a fund for your child’s program. Your gift, along with those of other sponsors, ensures all our children receive the same level of care. As we gain new sponsors, we are able to bring more children into our care.

Become an advocate for children who need sponsors

You can be an advocate for children in need, by committing to find sponsors for 5 COTN children.

As an advocate, you'll receive information about 5 children who need sponsors, a T-shirt from our "Story Changer" sponsorship campaign, and a list of some simple ideas for how you can talk to your friends and family about sponsoring a child through COTN.
