Sponsor a Child at Happy House

Thank you for thinking of sponsorship at Happy House. Your support creates something truly special – a family. By sponsoring a child, you provide more than shelter and education; rather, you offer the love and sense of belonging that transforms lives. You give a child, from a background of trauma and despair, a childhood free from worry.

As a sponsor, you’ll receive a video and profile of your sponsored child, along with regular updates on their progress, including school achievements and personal milestones. This is your chance to become a lasting presence in a child’s life and to join our global family of care and connection.

Creating a family is our goal

Be Part of a Sponsor Family

Each child at Happy House has a ‘sponsor family,’ which includes up to four sponsors. This approach not only covers essential needs, such as nutritious food and school supplies, but also provides lasting stability. As a result, children experience the security of a dependable support network.

For children who have already faced tremendous loss, this family support network ensures a dependable foundation, even if one sponsor’s circumstances change.

Where it is safe and in a child’s best interests, we maintain and encourage links with any relatives they may have. For instance, we arrange visits and, should the family situation improve to allow for a child to be repatriated, we will make it happen. We continue to provide support for as long as it is needed. A child knows that they can always return – “Once a Happy House kid, always a Happy House kid.” When a child is repatriated, we inform sponsors and ensure they are matched with another Happy House child.
