Children International has identified thousands of desperately poor children begging in the streets, lonely, hungry, sick and dying from diseases we can easily prevent.
But there is hope. Because when you become a sponsor, you’ll change one child’s life completely.
Sign up for a free sponsorship kit to learn more about the child who needs you >>
Your sponsorship gifts will provide your child with:
- Emergency Food
- Medical and Dental Care
- Educational Support
- Family Assistance
- Clothes, Shoes and More!
In return, you’ll receive personal letters, updated photos and of course, the love and gratitude of your sponsored child. And now you can find out if sponsorship is right for you with absolutely no cost, no risk and no obligation.
Simply fill out the form on Care2 and Children International will rush you the photo and family history of a special boy or girl who desperately needs your love and help. Then, if you decide to become a sponsor, your gift will be only $22 a month. That’s only 72 cents a day.
You are under no obligation but we think once you learn more about this special child, you’ll want to become part of the Children International family. So, please sign up to request your free information kit now!

NMAAHC Brings “Treasures” to Brooklyn on July 20
Brooklyn Museum and Smithsonian Present “Save Our African American Treasures”
Saturday, July 20, 2013 11 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Brooklyn Museum Martha A. and Robert S. Rubin Pavilion and Lobby 200 Eastern Parkway, Brooklyn, NY 11238 Free and open to the public
 |
The Smithsonian’s National Museum of African American History and Culture and the Brooklyn Museum will co-host “Save Our African American Treasures: A National Collections Initiative of Discovery and Preservation,” a daylong program to help New York-area residents identify and preserve items of historical and cultural significance.
Participants are invited to bring up to three personal items for a 15-minute, professional consultation with experts on how to care for them. The specialists will serve as reviewers, not appraisers, and will not determine an item’s monetary value. Objects such as books, photographs, ceramics, metalwork and textiles no larger than a shopping bag (furniture, carpets, firearms and paintings are excluded) can be reviewed.
“We are extremely proud to bring ‘Save Our African American Treasures’ to New York City and of our partnership with the Brooklyn Museum,” said Lonnie Bunch, director of the Smithsonian museum. “Whether it’s Weeksville, Jackie Robinson and the Brooklyn Dodgers or the Harlem Renaissance, New York City has been steeped in African American history from before the Emancipation. We encourage people to become aware of what they have, to protect it and to preserve it so the story of the African diaspora in this country can be told.”
The “Treasures” program also includes the following activities throughout the day:

“Save Our African American Treasures” is made possible with support from the Bank of America Charitable Foundation and the W.K. Kellogg Foundation.
