IN THEIR WORDS

Members of the Unbound community around the world share what sponsorship means to them.

“Some people assume it's normal to wake up every day and go to school or to get a meal. [It] is not easy, but Unbound made it possible for me, for me to get where I am. … I've gotten an education that will help me and the community and other people in general. … To [my sponsor] Margaret … thank you so much for making me who I am since I was young until now.”

“We love that families are empowered to use their sponsorship donations in ways that best help them. We also love that women are encouraged to develop ways to support their families and are helped by other women through their mothers groups to succeed.”

"The opportunity to sponsor came at a very difficult time in my life. It has had a very healing impact on me. I loved the letters and photos. I have always kept a picture of her [my sponsored friend] on my refrigerator. Thank you so much!”
