Help us help them — take part in our outreach efforts

By sharing CFCA with others in your community, you give us a personal and cost-effective way to find sponsors for children, youth and aging friends on our waiting list.

Be a part of our '8,000 kids' campaign

CFCA President Bob Hentzen walked nearly 8,000 miles through Latin America. His goal is to get 8,000 kids sponsored to show our solidarity with children and families in need.

Can you help us find one sponsor? It's simple.

  • Take a folder of just one child and show it to people you know.
  • Keep the folder for 60 days and give it your best effort.
  • If you are unable to find a sponsor, just return the folder in the postage-paid envelope we provide.
