As a child sponsor, you are associated with one particular child. But your sponsored children do not receive direct cash benefits. Your monthly donation is pooled for maximum effectiveness, meaning your sponsored children receive the cash benefits in terms of all kinds of necessities: schooling material, nutritious food etc. Moreover, you also join forces with other sponsors to fund long term community development program.
Your sponsorship is an ongoing commitment that helps your sponsored child and hence the literacy rate of the community increases as a whole. Your ongoing sponsorship allows you to witness the progress of your sponsored child as long as you are able to continue your support.
Each child is matched with only one sponsor. They are real children with real stories. Get to know your sponsored child through letters and emails, photos progress, updates and more. You can also visit your sponsored child whenever you are willing to.
Sponsorship is a long term commitment; however, the length of each sponsor depends on the needs of the child, his/her age or other circumstances. Sponsorship may end for various reasons, considering the situation of the child:
- Your sponsored child finishes his/her primary and secondary education from OBHIZATRIK School. In most cases, children are sponsored until they finish school and hence move to other technical/higher education.
- The family has moved to a different place/ community because of various circumstances.
In these cases, the sponsor will be notified immediately. If he/she is willing to continue their support, the donor can select another child from the profiles we send accordingly.
“Child sponsorship in OBHIZATRIK Foundation” is a unique kind of program that connects one child of OBHIZATRIK School in need with one donor. Becoming a sponsor means giving children the chance to grow up healthy, educated and safe – forever changing their life and future. The programs focus on improving the physical, emotional, spiritual, and social well-being of the most vulnerable children. We allow donors to make monthly funding commitments to support individual children of OBHIZATRIK School with whom they may correspond and even visit to see the impact of their support.

Zakat is the annual payment made by Muslims to support those most in need. It is one of the Five Pillars of Islam and is a key part of the Islamic faith. By donating a percentage of your wealth in order to help those less fortunate than yourself, you can please Allah (SWT) while supporting your brothers and sisters across the world.
Any adult Muslim who is working or earning more than is necessary to fulfil their everyday essential needs is expected to pay a percentage of their wealth as Zakat.
“As-Sadaqat (Zakat) are only for the Fuqara’ (poor), and Al-Masakin (the needy) and those employed to collect (Zakat funds); and for to attract the hearts of those who have been inclined (towards Islam); and to free the captives; and for those in debt; and for Allah’s Cause (i.e. for Mujahidun – those fighting in the holy wars), and for the wayfarer (a traveler who is cut off from everything); a duty imposed by Allah. And Allah is All-Knowing, All-Wise.”
