I saw this on a web site* a while ago, and it has really made me think. I already sponsor one child, a little 7-year old girl in Mongolia. Today I was out shopping, and saw the new iPods. They’re very cool. And then I saw a World Vision** stand there in the shopping centre. I had been thinking of sponsoring another child, and so when I saw them I had to go ahead and do that! I now sponsor a 3-year old boy, also in Mongolia.
The message of the image above had been bouncing around in my head, reminding me of perspectives and balance. I probably will buy a new iPod sometime soon, but what has really thrilled me is sponsoring this additional child. Won’t you consider doing that, too? Or make a one-off donation? Every little bit helps. Here’s where you find out more:
- Sponsor a child
- Donate to improve the life of a child
- Find out more about the work of World Vision in Mongolia
