Where to Find Great Letter-Writing Ideas

UPDATE: Since the publication of this post, letter-writing guidelines have changed and as a result you may not be able to send some of these items through Compassion’s correspondence system. Before you send your letter, please review our letter-writing guidelines.


On our Second Friday Letter Writing Club board on Pinterest, you can find many paper craft ideas to send to the child or teen you sponsor along with your next letter. Printable coloring pages, word searches, games, bookmarks. In fact, there are now over 800 ideas on that page to fill every creative need any sponsor might have.

But I believe the hard part for some people might be the actual words to share in a letter.

We know that words have power to build up a child. So what can you share in your letters besides answering their questions and sending a Bible verse to encourage them?

We have dozens and dozens of ideas and inspiration on our blog and website, but there are so many sponsors sharing their journeys of sponsorship and ideas online. We want to highlight them this month!

A couple of my Compassion blogging friends have put together some great topics and sample letters to help all sponsors feel more comfortable in writing to the children they are investing in.

Here are a few blogs where you can find some great letter writing ideas:
