Ever have any?</p>
<p>Ever have any about Compassion? Maybe not, but others sure do.</p>
<p>This is a common one that our phone center representatives hear a lot. </p>
<ul>
<li>Doesn’t my Compassion child attend school at Compassion’s child development center?</li>
</ul>
<p>Fortunately for you we&#8217;re not just giving you the question, here is the answer as told to us by those very same folks on the phone.</p>
<blockquote><p><a href="http://www.compassion.com/letter-writing/letter-writing-topics-faq.htm"><img border="0" align="right" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="http://blog.compassion.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/ugandan-children-199x300.jpg" alt="ugandan-children-during-Bible-study" title="ugandan-children-during-Bible-study" width="199" height="300" class="size-medium wp-image-1046" /></a>Compassion does not provide formal schooling for the children. Many children may attend the local government school. When needed, part of the $32 for sponsorship goes towards paying for the child’s school fees such as books or uniforms. </p>
<p>The children do attend the Compassion child development center for a variety of activities. The Compassion development center may enhance what the child is learning in school and it focuses on the most important areas of growth while promoting life skills.</p></blockquote>
<p>Many people think Compassion provides official schooling like a private school, but we don&#8217;t. And now ya know.</p>
<p>Have other questions? </p>
<p>We have a list of <a href="http://www.compassion.com/letter-writing/letter-writing-topics-faq.htm" target="_blank" title="More frequently asked questions">frequently asked questions</a> you may be interested in, but if you&#8217;re not interested in traveling over to compassion.com to read them, stay tuned because we&#8217;ll be highlighting some more right here.</p>
