GlobalFingerprints is the child sponsorship ministry of the Evangelical Free Church of America. We send children to school and help care for their physical, spiritual and emotional needs. All of this happens through the ministry of local churches around the world who want to see lives transformed.
When a child is sponsored, we commit to regularly assess their spiritual, nutritional, medical, and educational needs. We then use sponsorship funds to supplement these areas accordingly. This puts children on a path to escape the cycle of poverty. Physical needs are just a portion of what we aim to support because we believe each child’s relationship with Christ is their most vital need. That’s why we commit to serving sponsored children through the ministry of a local church.
