Help Rewrite Their Future
When you sponsor a child, your donation will not only assist the child you’re sponsoring, but the entire community through strengthening their community development projects.

Child Sponsorship

At Good Neighbours Australia protecting the rights and well-being of children is at the heart of what we do. Through our child sponsorship program, your support will ensure a child does not miss out on essential services that enhance their life including increased access to education, healthcare and more. Your sponsorship will also assist their family and strengthen the community they live in.

“Even though it was a small act by me, it made me feel glad to know it was a big thing for the children we sponsor. As a business, we’ve been able to maintain a favourable profit for a long time - which is a gift, really - and I feel a responsibility to share what we have.”

How Child Sponsorship Works

Good Neighbours Australia partners with our team in Vietnam to support children in need of sponsorship. You can nominate the preferred age and gender of your beneficiary, or we can suggest a child who’s in the greatest need of support.

Once matched, you’ll receive a welcome pack with your child’s details, a photo and information about their community.

Twice a year you’ll receive updates, including an annual progress report with photos and a letter from your child. Of course, we’re happy to facilitate extra communications, if you’d like to increase the contact to provide extra support throughout the year.

How to Give

When you sponsor a child, your support extends beyond the financial. Diu’s story provides insights to the extra positives that come from helping a child in need.

Diu currently lives in a remote, mountainous village in Vietnam.
When her mother is working on the farm, she takes care of her younger brother and helps with household chores.

Through child sponsorship, she was able to have a safe home, proper education and access to medical support when needed.

But the biggest benefit for her was the emotional support she could get from her sponsor.

For the first time in my life, I received a letter and a gift from a warm-hearted person whom I've never met. I felt connected to my sponsor and I realised that my life is precious.

Good Neighbours Australia adheres to the Australian Council for International Development (ACFID) Code of Conduct, which is recognised as good practice in NGO management. All donations $2 and over are tax deductible.

Questions?

When you sponsor a child, you are giving them the chance to rewrite their future. Your sponsorship supports education facilities, better healthcare, easier access to water and improved sanitation, as well as providing immediate resources such as food and clothing. You have the unique chance to personally partner with your sponsored child and their community to bring about good change, and be a part of this inspiring journey.

You can change a child’s life for just $45 per month. You can easily set up recurring donations via direct deposit or credit/debit card so you know your sponsorship is sorted each month. Easily keep track of your details and donation history via our donor login page.

Our friendly team will get started on matching you with a child in need. You’ll receive a welcome package in the mail within 2 weeks of signing up that will introduce you to your sponsored child.
You’ll receive an annual letter from your sponsored child and an annual report updating you on their progress. You can also write to your sponsored child by sending a card/letter to Good Neighbours Australia. For more tips & information on how to write to your sponsored child, check this link.

If you choose to sponsor a child, you’re choosing the most effective and rewarding way to give children a better future. Child sponsorship provides a more meaningful experience as you get to build a relationship with the child through bi-annual photos and communication, and directly supports the child and the community as a whole.

Yes. We would be happy to arrange split payments through EFT or direct debit if you and your family members would like to jointly sponsor a child. Phone or email our team directly at 02 9993 0312 and goodchange@goodneighbours.com.au to arrange this.
