Compassion International allows individuals to sponsor children in need around the world, impacting over a million children by providing education and healthcare. Poverty affects over 1.4 billion people, especially women and children, who make up almost half the population in developing countries. Each day, about 10,000 women die in childbirth and 10,000 newborns perish within a month, with over nine million children under five dying each year, two-thirds preventably. Compassion International enables sponsors to change these statistics for over $1 per day by ensuring children get food and education.
