What does my sponsorship provide?

You can sponsor a whole class of students in Guatemala, and watch them grow into godly leaders as they progress through school. Your investment helps break the cycle of poverty and illiteracy for the children in your class.

Each class is divided into a cluster of 10 units of sponsorship. As a sponsor, you can sponsor one unit, several, or all 10!

Your monthly investment of $50/unit provides essential resources for your class like school supplies and educational materials – and even teachers salaries. This translates to:

  • educational resources to provide a quality education
  • Christian discipleship and mentoring
  • healthy nutritious meals and vitamins to help them focus and learn better
  • a welcoming and nurturing environment with appropriate facilities
  • loving care from teachers who support their students comprehensively

In the rural areas of Guatemala, more than 75% of Indigenous people live in poverty. Many Guatemalan children don’t even complete elementary school. At a Vida school, Christian teachers – many of whom were once Vida students themselves – are personally involved in your students’ lives on a daily basis. They know first-hand the challenges the children are facing, and they provide godly role models to help their students become all the Lord intends for them to be! Sponsoring a class is the best way to support Vida teachers as they come alongside the children in our schools as they teach, mentor and disciple.

Your sponsorship also provides a spiritual blessing to your class as you pray for them and encourage them!

For each class in Guatemala, Impact Ministries is looking for sponsors for a cluster of 10 units of sponsorship. You can follow your class throughout their education in our Vida Schools. Classes may merge, especially during transitions from elementary school to junior high, and junior high school to the senior high teacher training program. Some educational services are also funded through other gifts to Impact Ministries.

How do I choose a class to support?

  1. Click “See Available Classes” to see classes in Guatemala that you can sponsor
  2. Personally select your grade and school by clicking More Info > Support This Class
  3. Once you click “Support this Class”, you’ll be prompted to login or signup to our Sponsorsoft system to complete the sponsorship process. There, you’ll have access to your class picture and online information package
  4. Don’t forget to set up your monthly support a class donation within 48 hrs

Some sponsors choose to sponsor one or more units, some sponsor the entire class, and some invite friends or family to join their cluster so that they’re supporting a class together. Whichever you choose, we’re excited that you’re coming alongside a class in Guatemala!

How can I stay in touch with my class?

Staying in touch with your class in Guatemala is easy through our Sponsorsoft System!
