ABOUT OUR SPONSORSHIP PROGRAM
When you sponsor a child with Empowerment International, it's personal. Your sponsored child is not just a number, we have a relationship with them, and you will too. Three times a year you will hear from your child. You are always welcome to write to them too, they really enjoy it when you do! As a matter of fact, you are welcome to meet them if you are in Nicaragua. By sponsoring a child, you are ascertaining that they have a spot in our program. Each year they receive school supplies, uniforms, shoes, tuition (for older kids if applicable), emotional and physical healthcare as needed, tutoring after school, home visits, access to all of our clubs such as reading, computers, dance, photography, soccer, art, and biking. These kids become a part of the EI family and feel they have a second home with us. As long as the student maintains our program requirements, they will be a part of our program throughout their educational career. It's no longer unusual for students to start at a young age in our program and graduate from high school or even enter the university.

My favorite color is pink, and my favorite animal is the dog. I like to play with my classmate at school, and my favorite subject is English because I can learn other things. I go to English and swimming classes at the foundation. When I grow up, I would like to be a teacher to help other kids read and write. I have two siblings, one brother, and one sister. They are smaller than me, and I like to help them with their homework. My favorite food is fried chicken, and my favorite sport is soccer.
