At the Touch A Life Care Center in Ghana, there are over 70 children who are given a safe and loving home, far from the dangers of trafficking and child labor. Our generous child sponsors<\/a> commit each month to ensure that every child has housing, nourishing food, clothing, and medical care. As we start a new year, we have seven children who do not have a child sponsor. We would love for you, your family, or your community to choose one of these children to support.<\/p>\n
