Helping needy children one sponsor at a time

Welcome and thank you for taking the time to read our blog. We think you’ll like what you see. My name is Sarah Trapp, and I work as a bilingual proofreader and Spanish translator here at Children International. Along with Kelly Nix, I also serve as blog moderator.

After earning bachelors degrees from the University of Kansas, I worked as a teacher in Mexico and Dallas and served as a translator for a public school here in the Kansas City area. I came to Children International with a passion for working with children and being able to help children in poverty around the world is just about as good as it gets.

This blog brings you stories from countries near and far about the needy children that Children International serves. In addition to learning more about our sponsorship program, we let you in on some behind-the-scenes information and give you a chance to meet some of the staff. From uplifting and sometimes heartbreaking tales of children living in poverty to great photos of sponsored children and youth whose lives are changing for the better, this blog brings the sponsorship experience to life. So check back often and thanks again for reading.
