Child Sponsorship Directory: Sponsor a Child

Where to sponsor

This child sponsorship guide will help you to choose where to sponsor a child. You are able to sponsor a child in well over 100 countries. As a charity we have been looking after orphans for more than 60 years in our SOS Children's Villages with their dedicated SOS mothers.

Choosing the Right Child Sponsorship for You

Most Villages have children available for sponsorship. All you have to do is click on the 'sponsor online' button. Then you can mention the country and other preferences you may have in the 'special instructions' box. If you ask us for guidance or leave the box blank you are likely to be assigned a child in a new Village in Africa where we are expanding rapidly faced with the HIV/AIDS crisis.

We have decided not to display photos of children who are available for sponsorship publicly on our website. Our feeling is that it would not be fair to the sponsored children. We do however try to help get the right sponsored child for each sponsor. We often match ages and genders of a sponsors own child. We are happy for sponsors to choose a country or Village where their child lives. We do not generally allow sponsors to choose a disabled child (except for a few specialised Villages for children with polio or landmine injuries) because such children are better treated in a fully integrated manner, but do please make any reasonable request and we will do our best to fulfil it.

SOS Child in Botswana, AfricaA

Albania in Tirana, supporting children affected by poverty.

Algeria where we have been working since 1981 and have an SOS Children's Village in Draria, south of Algiers.

Angola at Lubango or Benguela, where children have been innocent victims of civil war.

Argentina at either Oberá, Mar del Plata, Córdoba or Luján (near the capital Buenos Aires), where economic collapse in 2001 sees much of the population living in poverty.

Armenia where poverty is widespread and families with children under five make up 60% of those who are poor.

Azerbaijan which despite having reserves of oil and gas, has high levels of unemployment and low standards of living.

B

Bangladesh where political unrest and frequent natural disasters mean children are often abandoned. Over one third of children do not attend school and the literacy rate is under 50%.

Belarus where children affected by Chernobyl are supported through our work at Borovljany, north east of the capital Minsk and at Marina Gorka, south east of the capital.

Benin in either Natitingou, Dassa Zoume, or D'Abomey-Calavi.  In Benin, poverty and illness are widespread.

Bolivia where nine SOS Children's Villages care for children in the poorest country in South America.

Bosnia where the aftermath of war and the daily struggle with poverty leave children with traumatic experiences.

Botswana in either Tlokweng, Francistown or Serowe. Low life expectancy and children orphaned due to HIV/AIDS means there is a growing number of children alone.

Brazil where 14 SOS Children's Villages give a family for life to children in need. Community projects based at these Villages provide practical support to children and families in the local communities.

Bulgaria in either Trjavna or Dren, where the transition to a market economy from communism has seen food and water shortages as well as high rates of inflation.

Burkina Faso where around three-quarters of a million children have lost one or both parents. Sponsor today at Dafra or Ouagadougou.

Burundi where civil war and lack of infrastructure mean children at Gitega, Bujumbura, Muyinga, Cibitoke and Rutana are in need of support.

C

Cambodia  in the capital Phnom Penh, Angkor-Siem Reap or Battambang, where years of war have had a huge impact on the country's infrastructure.  Around 10% of children in Cambodia are orphans.
