Child Sponsorship - Africa

Abaana has now been running a child sponsorship program since 1997. We believe in child sponsorship because it connects people like you with children that are miles away, and gives you the opportunity to develop a unique personal relationship with your sponsor child. When you sponsor a child your money sends them to school, helps feed them, buys the books and uniform needed for schooling, and also covers some medical needs. You can sponsor a child in Africa and give them a future today.

You can also sponsor online using a credit or debit card.

Child Sponsorship costs just £14 a month

(That is less than 50p a day).

With Abaana the full £14 goes towards your child in Africa.

Children waiting for sponsorship

Abaana works on a principle of finding sponsors for children, not children for sponsors. There are always many children waiting for a sponsor. If you would like to choose a child to sponsor, you can view some of the children who are waiting for sponsorship now. Alternatively, we can choose a child for you or you can pick the age and gender

Questions about being a sponsor

Most people have many questions and concerns about child sponsorship. Here are some of the most common questions which should help you make a decision about sponsoring a child through Abaana.

Africa's Children

A struggle to survive: Many children in Africa grow up with very little chance in life. They will never have an education or the hope of a future. When you sponsor a child you give that child hope. The chance to live, not just survive.
