Compassion



This is Maverick David Lanza Zelaya. I sponsor him through Compassion International. How awesome is it that I get the chance to give.

David was born on Nov 6, 2003 in Honduras. Honduras is the poorest country in Central America. Eighty-seven percent of the people are peasants of Indian and Spanish ancestry and malnourishment is widespread.
My sponsorship allows the staff at Unidos por Dios Student Center to provide David with Bible teaching, health and nutrition education, medical checkups, group games, birthday parties, cultural activities, academic support, school supplies, uniforms and shoes. The center staff will also provide evangelism, parents' school and family recreational activities for the parents or guardians of David.

I am able to write to David. The letters I send are translated into his language. He can also send letters to me. What and awesome experience I have ahead of me! I can't wait to get to know David and all that he is.
