It Is Noble To Sponsor African Child

By Melissa Thomas


The beauty and innocence of a child are beyond compare. Surely, no one should hurt these little creatures. They need loving and tender care. However, some African children are being treated harshly because of poverty and lack of parents. That is why people need to think seriously about how they can sponsor African Child. This can be done in many ways.

The ironies of the world are perplexing. While others are having merry, some are dying. The children of rich countries enjoy the niceties of life but their counterparts in Africa bear with a sad reality that often involves going to bed hungry, failing to have an education, not being immunized on time and even sleeping on the streets.

Children are the core of the society. They dictate the future survival of a nation. Therefore, they deserve tender loving care. Unfortunately, this is not the case in some African countries. This is because of the heavy grind of poverty. Some people are very poor to the extent that they cannot buy for their children lifesaving medications resulting to high infant mortality.

Most western societies take good care of their orphans. In Africa, this vulnerable group of the population is left to wander the street. In this continent, the number of orphans is increasing with every passing day because of the scourge of HIV AIDS and the debilitating effects of war. Without proper parental guidance, a child can end up in the wrong hands. Many organizations are actively providing hope, purpose and a future to orphans in Africa. These groups require human resource and financial support.

A support of any sum of money is always welcomed. One should contribute according to his endowment. There is no big or small contribution. The most important thing is helping in the best way possible. If most people in the developed world could just contribute a dollar towards helping underprivileged children, many lives will be changed and the world will become a better place.

It starts with one person rising up to the occasion and making a contribution. One should not keep quiet about his contribution but should spread the message to as many people as possible. It is good to encourage family members and friends to also contribute. One needs to have a convincing argument so that to win the hearts and minds of other people.

The power of many westerns will save many African children. There is usually the multiplier effect. When there is a significant number of people contributing towards a certain cause, many more others will also be encouraged to contribute. Therefore, contributions will double and triple in a number of days. Most of these monies will go directly towards assisting vulnerable children. Only a very small percentage is set aside for administrative expenses.

Supporting African children is simply making a powerful humanitarian statement. It is acknowledging that no child deserves to suffer irrespective of where he comes from. The supported children usually end up progressing in life and some of them end up in top positions in society. When they become great, they will always remember the help they received and they will gladly extend their hands toward helping other needy and vulnerable members of society.
