SPONSORSHIP UPDATES

Sponsoring a student or staff is an amazing way to see the faces and learn about the culture and environment of the community on and off campus.

When you sponsor a Child (Student), College Student, Nursing Student, or Trade Student – you’re providing safe housing, food, clothing, schools supplies and a way out of poverty through education. When you sponsor an Evangelist or Bible Lady, you’re providing housing and food for the individual and their familes.

CHILD SUPPORT INCREASE (6/1/2025)

All of us are aware of the increased costs for housing and food here and around the world. These increases have also happened in India.

Due to the increased expenses, the IREF Board has voted to raise the suggested Child Support amount from $35 per month to $40 per month.

This increase is effective with the new school year (6/1/2025).

All the currently unsponsored “child student” are now sponsored at $40 per month.
