Let me tell you my delimma: I have some children that have been enjoying the sponsorship program.  Some have been receiving sponsorship gifts for over a year, and others for just a few months.  The sad thing is that when the sponsor decides they can no longer support the child, the child is left abruptly wondering what happened- Did the child say the wrong things?  Did the sponsor not like the photos?  Millions of questions run through the child's head, and it leaves me heart sick for them.  

The best case scenario is if the children can be responsored before they find out they have lost their sponsor.  The worst case scenario is the one I described above where the child is questioning what happened and is no longer participating in the program with their friends. 

So, I am hoping you can help me get these children responsored before they find out that they have lost their sponsors.  I have several children to feature over the next few days.  Even if you can not sponsor one, please consider fostering so that they will get a gift every now and then.   These 2 girls above are 2 of the bunch that need new sponsors.  Thanks for your help!
