Measuring the lasting impacts of child sponsorship
Studies of formerly sponsored children revealed that the experience of sponsorship had “statistically significant impacts on years of schooling; primary, secondary, and tertiary school completion; and the probability and quality of employment.”
In short, child sponsorship works!
In terms of improving educational achievements, sponsored children were 27%-40% more likely than their peers to complete secondary school, and 48%-80% more likely to complete tertiary education (i.e. any post-secondary studies including vocational school or university). Concerning future employment as adults, the probability of these children obtaining salaried work increased by 14%-17%, and the chance of them getting a white collar job went up by 35%. These statistics are positive indicators that child sponsorship doesn’t just improve the childhood experience, it changes a person’s life – forever.
On August 10, 2024, The PSI Scholarship Foundation will award EIGHT SEPARATE SCHOLARSHIPS.
We invite you to review the descriptions of these scholarships to provide you with a clearer scope of the individuals that the PSI Scholarship Foundation has privilege of supporting and to understand how your sponsorship and donations contribute to young athletes achieving the PSI Scholarship Foundation's goals and making a difference in the community.

​
Our corporate matching gift program is a great way to do just that!

Some companies even match gifts made by retirees and/or spouses.
