Write a letter
Your child would love to hear from you and will write back! Please feel free to communicate with your sponsored child through letters, postcards, or email.
When writing a letter to your sponsored child, it’s important to consider your sponsored child’s environment and culture. For example, it’s best not to write about the things you own, since your child has very few possessions. Feel free to share about your family, friends, and interests. You can always include a colorful postcard or photo with your mailed letter, which your sponsored child would treasure. (Snail mail details below.)
How to mail a letter to your sponsored child
You may send any correspondence and gifts directly to our center in Kenya in an envelope no larger than 6”x9”. This will help the sponsorship family avoid paying any duty or fees on larger packages. Be sure to include your sponsored child’s name on the envelope. To avoid confusion, please use Project Lucas’ address as the return mailing address and do not include your contact information in your correspondence to your sponsored child.
