Joy lives with both of her parents and little sister in a two-room sheet metal house on loan to them temporarily by a good Samaritan. The house has a cement floor and small solar panel lighting. The family uses firewood for cooking in an open kitchen, and they have a bathroom facility that is in good condition. Rain water is collected for usage during the rainy season, otherwise tapped water is borrowed from a neighbor.
Joy’s mother works as a casual laborer and is the sole provider, since her husband is essentially unemployed. He gets an odd job now and then to help buy food but does not support the children in any other way. There is barely enough to meet the basic needs of the family. Joy’s father is physically abusive and her mother is considering leaving him as she fears for herself and the children.
You can help the girls at Quinta Anfuso, and hundreds of other children like them, through our Join The Village opportunity.

When you sponsor a child, you’re not just providing essentials like nutritious meals, clean water, education, and health care. You’re helping unlock something far greater—their God-given purpose. You’re creating a bond that goes beyond meeting needs, showing them the love of Christ and guiding them toward a future filled with hope.
Select a child to sponsor and step into their journey with an ongoing commitment of at least $38 a month. By doing so, you'll be part of God's plan for their life, providing vital resources like education, meals, and spiritual guidance.
Receive your sponsor kit, complete with your child's detailed profile, photo, and special gifts. Get to know their hopes, dreams, and challenges as you begin a meaningful, life-changing relationship.
Share prayers, encouragement, and love through letters and photos. Your words have the power to shape their faith and future, offering hope and strength as they navigate life. You can even visit your child on a short-term mission trip!
Your sponsorship helps provide for your child’s physical, educational and spiritual needs. These needs are met differently depending on the community your child is in, but include things like:
We specialize in quality mission trips, affording you the opportunity for meaningful face-to-face time with your child.
