Student Sponsorship Program at Mission Impact in Guatemala is a powerful way to partner with an underprivileged student and help them break the bond of poverty by giving them the chance to change direction and transform their future.
Our mission at Sponsorship Program is to provide our students with a holistic education as well as spiritual guidance by helping them grow in their faith and identity in Christ. Our program connects you with a Guatemalan child who has limited resources to get a quality education and needs your help to build a brighter future. With your support you will be providing life-changing benefits and creating new and amazing opportunities at a low monthly donation.

Sponsorship provides a face to those wishing to join the fight to alleviate world poverty and these studies show that it is paying off.
If you are not currently sponsoring a student through our Sponsorship Program and would like to start giving hope in Christ and building a brighter future, please START IMPACTING THE LIFE OF A STUDENT!
The student you sponsor will receive a Christ-centered education with weekly devotionals, Bible classes, health checkups, dental and eye appointments as needed, field trips, access to better nutrition, and caring staff and teachers who diligently teach their students the Word of God as well as their identity in Christ.
The family of the sponsored student is also affected as our schools provide special events for parents such as Father’s Day and Mother’s Day programs to encourage them to become involved in their child’s education as well as to hear the Gospel for themselves.
Most importantly, your sponsorship allows a child to be educated in the Word of God and exposed to the Gospel through chapel, Bible classes, and encouragement as they grow in their love for the Lord. Our goal is that when each student graduates, they leave with a solid biblical foundation and are well-equipped and trained, so they will be well prepared and able to thrive in whatever path they choose.
Student sponsorship continues as long as they stay in school. We ask for a minimum commitment of one year, but many sponsors enjoy supporting their student throughout the years they are at the school.
Sponsorship costs $50/monthly or $600/annually per child. You may make your monthly payments online or mail in your support to Mission Impact.
Your sponsorship will cover the costs to provide a holistic Christian education for your student.
You can either choose a student from Colegio Vida y Esperanza, a co-ed school Pre-K through 11th grade in Santa Lucía Milpas Altas, or Próximos Pasos, an all-girls school in Santa María de Jesús.
