I love the CSP, I think it’s a wonderful idea. We need to reach these kids from the moment they are born, so they will have every chance of reaching their full potential.

i’ve visited quite a few Compassion Int’l countries, and the Child Survival Program is always what impresses me the most. I remember in particular walking through a slum in Kampala, Uganda with a local church volunteer in charge of visiting the mothers in that community. She works tirelessly visiting these mothers and making sure their babies survive and thrive well beyond their 5th birthday. I greatly respect and applaud CI’s (and their donors) commitment to CSP. I hope you can continue to expand this program.

Those are staggering facts. When I’m presenting Compassion to a church or church group, I love to cover the three core programs and the Complementary Interventions. Depending on the group, I love delving into the Child Survival Program, because it’s so unique, in its focus not only on child survival, but on the mother/child unit, the training the mom (or other caregiver) receives, the connection to the church and the hope in Jesus Christ that these mothers hear about. All of the core programs are outstanding, but without CSP, too many young’uns were dying before they were old enough to be registered, and their mothers might never have received the hope and the life that can be theirs!

I was fairly amazed to see the program in action in the Philippines and how it worked etc.
