CHILD SPONSORSHIP
LJI's sponsorship program helps provide orphaned children with Christian parents, a family environment, shelter, food, clothing, medical care and counseling, community and religious acitvities, and educational opportunities. Child sponsors are asked to give $100 dollars per month to their sponsored child and encouraged to send letters, pictures, birthday gifts, and Christmas gifts. Sponsors will receive monthly email updates, a magnet with their child's picture, and letters and optional artwork from their child twice a year.
Love Justice International (LJI) reports that it works to fight the world's greatest injustices through human trafficking intervention and caring for orphaned children. By utilizing transit monitoring, the organization aims to intercept potential victims of human trafficking, build a database to provide understanding about human trafficking, and support the arrest of traffickers. LJI states that it also cares for orphaned and abandoned children by placing these children in family homes. Each home provides the children with a family-like atmosphere, nurturing house parents, and educational opportunities.
