Thanks to the generosity of donors, CFCA's Scholarship Program has allowed thousands of students in our projects to see dreams once deemed impossible become reality.
CFCA projects overseas award scholarships based on economic need, academic achievement, demonstrated leadership and commitment to community service.
Many CFCA scholars remain in their communities after they complete their education. Because they were selected based in part on their commitment to service, they contribute their talents to lifting their families and communities from poverty.

This is in accordance with our child protection policies and also in keeping with our commitment to respecting the dignity of those we serve. At the same time, we know sponsors may wish to sponsor a child or aging person of a particular age, gender or country, and we do everything possible to honor those requests. Sponsors are invited to indicate special requests in the "other criteria" box when you sponsor online. Once your sponsorship has been established, you will receive a photo and family profile of your sponsored friend, the address of the CFCA project where you may write to your friend and other helpful information about your CFCA sponsorship. |
