Haiti Disaster Appeal

Please help our church partners care for the most vulnerable in their communities. Give now to support children and their families who have been affected by the Haiti earthquake. 100% of donations from disaster appeals are used to directly benefit children and families.

Let your Compassion live on!

By leaving a gift in your Will to Compassion UK, you can leave a legacy for the future and make a lasting impact.

Your gift will be used in three ways:

  1. If you choose, we can use your gift to support any children you sponsor until they complete their time in the Compassion programme. We’ll even find someone else to write letters and pray for them. Check out our FAQs for how to make this happen.

  2. Any extra money will be used in partnership with local churches across Africa, Asia and Latin America to deliver life-changing programmes that release even more children from poverty in Jesus’ name.

  3. At its heart, your gift will continue to show love and the transforming power of Christ to vulnerable children, families and communities in the countries where Compassion works.

The core principles for Compassion are Christ, Church and Children, what we often call our 3Cs. And you can be confident we’ll use any gift you leave in your Will in accordance with these principles – it’s what we do!

Gill’s story…

“Gill Langlois was a Compassion volunteer and, for many years, a teacher of young children. Gill and her husband Martyn sponsored a number of children, including Amelie in Burkina Faso. The Compassion project that Amelie attended did not have any classrooms, and Martyn Langlois decided that it would be a fitting legacy to his wife to build classrooms for Amelie and the other children in the project.”

“Since then, a further 2 classrooms have been built at Compassion projects in Burkina Faso, and three classrooms in Northern Thailand.”
