Education is the key to the treasures of a lifetime. Educated people can access better jobs with better pay, which in turn means they can support themselves and do not need to rely on aid.
They become doctors, teachers, engineers or lawyers, which in turn benefits their entire communities.
Yet, too often, the education that can provide all these things is denied to children who need it most: those from low income families.
That’s why World In Need makes it a condition of sponsorship that a sponsored child attends school. Through the help we give them now, we change the future from one of low expectations to one of fulfilled potential and hope.
Prayer: Please pray for the children on our sponsorship programme and those hoping to find sponsors in the near future, for those who sponsor our children, for the schools World In Need supports in various countries, that the quality of education their students receive will make a vast difference to many lives. For those who teach, sometimes in intolerable conditions.
Other ways you can help: Sponsoring children, supporting fund raising efforts.
Bible reading: Proverbs 13:13-15
