Welcome to Baptist World Aid Australia

SAO Child Sponsorship is growing

Across the world today, one billion children live in poverty. They go to bed hungry, they miss out on school due to illness, they can’t afford healthcare, and every year 8 million children die before their fifth birthday, many from easily preventable diseases1.

To respond to the needs of children living in poverty, Baptist World Aid Australia is substantially increasing the number of children and communities involved in SAO Child Sponsorship. Over 5,000 more children and their families will benefit from this program over the next three years.

This year we take the first step giving 1800 new children the chance to shine.
