I would dearly love to sponsor a child. My thought is to arrange this prior to Xmas so I can place the details of the sponsored child under our Xmas tree as a gift to my children. I would prefer an organisation that gives you the details of the child so my children can put a face to the name and hopefully get a realisation of how other children struggle and how lucky we are as a family. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated xox

That's awesome you want to do this and help a child.
Please do some research, Google the orginisation and what percent of dollar goes to helping child. A lot of the well known charities spend big money on admin etc so for example every dollar given up to 80c is spent on admin and only 20c makes it to the child.
There is a lot of charities that don't advertise and spend money on admin that are run mostly by volunteers and with them 80-90c per dollar goes to helping the child
