We just have to tell you about Danilo.

Danilo is 9. He lives with his family in the Philippines and he’s in the fifth grade at school. Two years ago, Danilo heard about Holt’s child sponsorship program from a kid who lived next door to him. His neighbor told him that he has a sponsor in the U.S. who helps him go to school by providing school supplies, lunch money and uniforms.

Danilo couldn't believe it!

His parents also had trouble covering the cost of his supplies, books, uniforms and school lunches. Some days, he even went without lunch.
