Will my sponsored child receive a gift if I donate to the Compassion Christmas Appeal? Are the donations pooled?

All donations to the Compassion Christmas Appeal are pooled. The funds raised ensure that project staff can bless every child registered in the Compassion programme with a gift. It might be a new pair of shoes to replace a worn-out pair, a warm blanket for cold nights, or books that inspire them to dream big.

So yes, the child you sponsor will absolutely receive a Christmas present through the shared funds. Our project staff work hard to hand-pick appropriate gifts that suit each individual child’s specific needs.
