Sponsorship is a way in which you, a donor, can establish a relationship with a poor Mexican child that can deepen and expand over the years as that child grows into adulthood. As a Sponsor you will receive a photo of the child and annual progress reports. If you visit Colima, we will arrange for you to meet your sponsored child.

Sponsorship donations help pay for the Christmas fiesta and beach trip which are hosted each year by Project Amigo and the Colima Rotary Club, as well as medical, dental, and educational services provided by Project Amigo volunteers.

Before school starts each fall students receive school uniforms and school shoes; gym clothes and tennis shoes; school supplies; and school registration fees. During the school year the students receive more school supplies as needed, costs of transportation to and from school, one hot meal a day, and weekly tutoring and mentoring sessions.

Scholarship students who successfully complete High School are eligible for a Project Amigo College Scholarship to the University of Colima. Some of our young scholars are outstanding students with real potential to become doctors, lawyers, teachers and community leaders. When these children enter a profession they, and their whole family, will break the cycle of poverty that has imprisoned them for generations.
