This Remarkable Community Is Now 100,000 People Strong

On our Instagram we share beautiful stories of hope and courage. And because of your support, on Feb. 12, we reached an EPIC milestone in our Instagram history. There are now 100,000 people that are part of this incredible community! And we want to tell the story of how we got here. And how YOU were part of that story every step of the way.


We can’t forget the many milestones you made possible over the years:

    • After Hurricane Matthew struck Haiti on Oct. 26, 2017, you raised more than $2 million to help restore lives.

    • On Sept. 16, 2017, we had our first Sponsor Selfie Day! Sponsors from 21 countries flooded Instagram with thousands of photos to show love for kids in poverty!

As these amazing milestones were hit, you spread their stories to thousands of people on Instagram. And every time you shared, this remarkable community of Instagrammers who release children from poverty continued to grow.

Let’s celebrate the Instagram highlights we’ve shared together throughout the years.

Since we posted for the first time in 2011…


… and first hashtagged #compassioninternational in 2013, you’ve shared so many adorable moments with us!


You’ve written letters that filled children with hope and love.


You’ve journeyed across the world to meet the Compassion students you invest in.


And you’ve (literally) made kiddos dance with pure happiness!


We’re grateful for all you do! You encourage us to push forward every day!


As we look ahead, we’re excited for all that God has in store for this community. Follow us on Instagram to come along on the journey with us!
