A rescued child can be sponsored for $35.00 per month. Once you choose to sponsor a child, you become a "padrino" or godparent. The money given for sponsorship of a child is used in four areas. To provide food and clothing for your sponsored child and also to take care of his educational and medical needs. FCM does not withold any of the sponsorship money for administrative expenses. In order to meet the rescued children's needs, we need to have ten sponsors per child. We suggest also that you send $10.00 for your sponsored child's birthday and $25.00 for Christmas. As a "Padrino" or godparent, you will receive a picture profile of your sponsored child along with a short bio about that child.
