You can make a difference in the life of an individual child and collectively change a community and a nation. Your tangible investment in a child will have lasting impact through child sponsorship.
When you sponsor a child through Stop for the One, you are matched with one of our Iris Children to pray for, support, and love. You get to invest in their life and follow their journey. You’re connected with the Iris Center that they live at and you’ll receive updates about their community.
What Will I Receive/Have Access To?
Sponsor Account: Once you sign up for sponsorship you can sign into your Sponsor Account online and send your child a message!
Welcome Packet: Within the first month of signing up for child sponsorship, you will receive a Welcome Packet with a picture of your child and more information about the Stop for the One program.
Center Updates: You can follow Stop for the One on social media, as we often share stories and updates from our Centers. You will also be signed up for our Center Sponsor newsletter in which we share stories and testimonies specifically from our Center Children’s lives.

Why Try Sponsorship?
Your Sponsorship is a part of providing a child with food, clean water, clothing, housing, education, medical care, spiritual discipleship, fun activities, and gifts in a family atmosphere. The majority of our children in our child sponsorship program have been orphaned, partially orphaned or their families are unable to care for them. Many of the children who come to live with us have no other place to go and have been abandoned to take care of themselves. They can come from vulnerable situations like abuse or extreme poverty. When a child comes to us, they walk into a family. They are no longer orphans. They are instantly a son or daughter and a brother or sister in our Iris family. Your sponsorship funds the homes these children live in.
We so value your prayers and love for your child. Although you may not meet them in this lifetime, you will be making an eternal impact on their life.
