Sponsorship can be life-changing support for families in need. Every sponsorship story carries its own unique spark of hope. The story of Sivasankari and her mother is a powerful example of God’s love in action through the ‘yes’ of a sponsor like you.
Two and a half years ago, Sivasankari’s mother, Devi, was in a tragic situation. Her husband died suddenly of a heart attack. Their family was not only plunged into grief but had lost their primary breadwinner.
In March 2022, their family felt a sense of hope. Recognizing their need for assistance, their youngest daughter, Sivasankari, was chosen for sponsorship by Chalice.
“This turning point marked the beginning of a transformative journey for Sivasankari and her family, as they received the much-needed support and assistance to rebuild their lives,” a worker from our Tamil sponsor site says, “the family found newfound stability and security, enabling them to navigate the challenges they faced with resilience and determination.”
“Despite the hardships they endured, Sivasankari’s mother remained steadfast in their pursuit of education and better opportunities for their children…and it provided the family with access to nutritious food, essential medical care, and other necessities,” says the Tamil worker, “With these vital resources at their disposal, the family experienced a significant improvement in their overall well-being and quality of life.”
Before receiving sponsorship, their house was only half-furnished. Now, it is filled with essential furniture, along with a sense of hope and gratitude.
Sivasankari’s mother expresses her heartfelt thanks for the unwavering support and compassion shown to her family. The transformative impact of sponsorship has not only lifted them out of hardship but has also instilled a sense of hope and optimism for the future.
“With renewed determination and gratitude, Devi and her family look forward to continuing their journey toward a brighter tomorrow, empowered by the support they have received from Chalice,” the Tamil worker says.
Sponsorship is about filling the gaps that go beyond just money, such as gaps in wellbeing, opportunities, and peace of mind. Your generosity makes a big difference, sponsor a child today.
