Compassion's mission, is to work to achieve through a holistic approach to child development. Compassion carefully blends physical, social, economic and spiritual care together…in Jesus' name.
COMPASSION HELP DEVELOP CHILDREN INTO ALL GOD INTENDS THEM TO BE
Child development equips children today with skills to succeed tomorrow. Holistic child development provides opportunities that encourage the healthy development of all aspects of a child — spiritually, physically, socially, emotionally, and even economically — early and throughout life.
Holistic child development means Compassion begins assisting a child in poverty, in some cases, when the child is still in the womb, and it means Compassion goes all the way through young adulthood with the child.
Holistic child development requires a long-term approach and goes beyond simple involvement in the life of a child. It involves long-term dedication and perseverance, and it changes as a child’s needs change. Holistic child development is tailored to a child's age, gender, health, culture and family situation.
COMPASSION DOES ALL OF THEIR WORK THROUGH LOCAL CHURCHES
Compassion works with thousands of local churches around the world, and each church partner tailors our holistic child development model to the contextualized needs of the children in its community, to best deliver the whole-life care the children need.
Compassion works primarily through child sponsorship, but also has specific initiatives to help babies and mothers, to develop future leaders, and to meet critical needs.
