Child and Elder Sponsorship Centers
Elders at the Family Village Farm (India)
Through your support, the Global Ministries Child and Elder Sponsorship Program partners with agencies and churches all over the world to provide services that create opportunities and affirm dignity. For more information on how you can get involved, go to Child and Elder Sponsorship Program page.
The community of the Family Village Farm in Vellore, India includes elders who have no place to live and no income. The elders are part of “cottages” where three generations are a family unit. They act as grandparents providing wisdom, guidance and, most importantly, a nurturing figure in the lives of the children. The elders receive meals, medical care, shelter and a small stipend for their role in the cottage. Their spiritual needs are met by regular prayer meetings and worship time.
Sponsorship: $40 per month
