Sustainable Christ-centered Schools
Worldwide Christian Schools and its partners share the goal of providing Christ-centered education to all who desire it, regardless of financial circumstances. Since these schools cannot depend fully on tuition, this requires the development of multiple, ongoing income sources to guide school toward a greater degree of sustainability within their communities.
Student Sponsorship
Currently, WWCS helps schools work toward sustainability through student sponsorship, which gives more children access to quality, Christ-centered education by allowing sponsors to contribute toward the educational costs of children in need. WWCS offers two student sponsorship programs that meet needs in various parts of the world:
One Student. One Sponsor. Two Lives Changed
Student Hope offers “two lives changed” through a global WWCS program which has begun in India.

Why Student Sponsorship matters:
By choosing to sponsor a student, you are helping WWCS address urgent needs worldwide.
Today, 72 million school-aged children around the globe do not have access to education, a situation that perpetuates poverty, injustice and inequality (UNICEF).
There are approximately one billion children in the world who have never heard that God loves them. There is less than a 7% chance that these children will come to know Christ if they don’t by the age of 14 (Barna Research).
In many parts of the world, Christ-centered schools are allowed to operate where Christian churches are not. There are many forces competing for a child’s attention, especially in the developing world. For example, both Muslims and Christians are building schools as quickly as possible.
You can make all the difference in the world for one child who needs your support. Thank you for your interest in sustaining Christ-centered schools around the globe!
