Though sponsorship only costs about $30 a month, it feeds, clothes and educates a child. The following is a breakdown on how sponsorship funds are spent:
| 80% | $24 | Food, education and clothing for your child and the means of getting it to the child or child's school. |
| 15% | $4.50 | Administrative
costs of home office. |
| 5% | $1.50 | Scholarship program for secondary school students who lose their sponsor or classes cost more than sponsorship provides. |
100% of all contributions to funds or extra gifts to the child are given to those purposes.
