Before the backpacks are packed and the school year begins, let’s pause and pray. 🙏🏽📚

Join us as we pray over our children, parents, teachers, and everyone stepping into a new school year. May God guide, protect, strengthen, and remind every child that they are never alone. 💛

Save this prayer and share it with a family who needs it!

What if your next internship could be more than something to put on your resume? 👀

For one of our most recent graduates, saying YES to an internship with Metro World Child became an opportunity to grow, serve, build relationships, step outside his comfort zone, and discover what God can do when you’re willing to go.

This is Lars’ story.

And maybe your story starts here. ❤️

🎒 A new uniform. A fresh start. A reason to smile.

For Isaac, going back to school came with worry. His uniform was worn, and he felt embarrassed about returning to school that way.

Because of Metro World Child and your support, Isaac received what he needed to start the school year.

To us, it may be a uniform. To Isaac, it meant walking through the school gates with dignity, confidence, and hope.

Your support can turn what feels like an impossible school day into a moment of joy for a child.

True blessing isn't found in what we have—it's found in hearing God's Word and living it out.

In Luke 11:28, Jesus reminds us that a blessed life comes from listening to God's voice and walking in obedience to Him. His Word isn't just meant to inspire us; it's meant to transform us.

Every time we choose to trust His promises, follow His leading, and put His truth into practice, we draw closer to the life He has called us to live.

Today, don't just hear His Word—live it. ❤️

🎒💌 A BACKPACK CAN CARRY MORE THAN SCHOOL SUPPLIES.

It can carry a reminder that a child is seen, loved, and believed in.

We’re so thankful for the generous donors and sponsors who gave backpacks to children this back-to-school season—and took the time to write a handwritten letter to go with them. 💛

That personal note can mean so much to a child. It says, “Someone is thinking about you. Someone is cheering you on.”

And there’s still time for you to be part of it! 🎒✏️

You can join us in providing a backpack and writing a personal letter to a child, giving them both something they can carry and a message they can carry in their heart.

🎒👟 Every child deserves to walk into school with confidence.

Meet Bettie from Kenya. She was often teased at school because of the shoes she wore, and the hurtful comments began to affect her confidence and self-esteem.

Because of Metro World Child and your support, Bettie received a new pair of shoes—and with them came something even more valuable: renewed confidence and the reminder that she is seen, valued, and loved. ❤️

As children around the world prepare to return to school, your support can help provide more than school supplies. It can help a child walk through those school gates with dignity, hope, and confidence.

🎒 Help give a child a strong start this school year.

🌎📚 WHAT DOES BACK TO SCHOOL LOOK LIKE AROUND THE WORLD?

For some children, back to school means a new backpack, fresh supplies, and a classroom ready to welcome them. For others, it can mean walking long distances, sharing limited supplies, or learning in a school that is still in need of basic resources.

But no matter where they live, every child deserves the opportunity to learn, grow, and dream. 💛

Swipe through to see what back to school looks like for children around the world—and how Metro World Child is coming alongside communities to help make a difference. 🌍

(Thank you for helping make the school year brighter for a child!)

What are you planting today?

Hosea 10:12 reminds us that the seeds we sow matter. When we choose obedience, kindness, prayer, and faithfulness, God can bring a harvest far greater than we could ever imagine.

This verse is also an invitation to prepare our hearts—to let God soften the places that have grown hard and make us ready for what He wants to do in our lives.
Keep seeking the Lord. Keep planting seeds of faith. In His perfect timing, a harvest will come. 🌱❤️

A DESK MAY SEEM SIMPLE. BUT TO A CHILD, IT CAN MEAN SO MUCH.

In Burundi, many schools face tremendous needs when it comes to basic resources for their students. Something as essential as a desk can make a real difference in a child’s ability to learn, focus, and experience school with dignity.

Because of the generosity of our donors, students in Burundi now have new desks to learn from.

This is what your support makes possible. What may seem like a small gift can become a practical answer to a very real need—and an investment in the future of children.

To every donor who helped make this possible: thank you. You’re helping create better opportunities for children and showing them that they matter. 🌍💛

At Metro World Child, we believe every child deserves to walk into the classroom with confidence, hope, and the tools they need to succeed.

🎒 You can make that possible.

Your gift will help provide backpacks filled with essential school supplies for children in underserved communities, giving them the opportunity to start the school year ready to learn and reminded that they are loved.

Every backpack is more than school supplies—it's a message of hope, encouragement, and a brighter future.

❤️ Help us equip the next generation.
