How sponsorship works When you sponsor through Unbound, you offer a hand up — not a handout — to a family working to lift themselves out of poverty through hard work, initiative and hope. Your monthly contribution of $40 directly benefits the specific individual you sponsor to help meet their basic needs. But your sponsorship does so much more. With your support, our program empowers sponsored individuals and their families with tools to achieve self-sufficiency. Local staff members work with sponsored families on how to best use their benefits to achieve personal and family goals. This may include resources for: Nutrition Health care Education and skills training Improved living conditions Seed capital for a small business or farm Thanks to your support and encouragement, families are able to invest in their children's education, develop livelihoods and become active community participants. Over time, they rely less on sponsorship and more on their own income-generation activities.
