The power to choose in a child’s hands.

Bring your church together. Transform lives—experience Chosen.

Chosen is World Vision’s sponsorship experience where children choose their sponsors—restoring dignity, connection, and hope.

When a child says, “ I choose you,” it sparks joy, purpose, and transformation. Chosen flips the traditional sponsorship model, giving children the power to choose their sponsor, restoring dignity to the process.

Hosting a Chosen event brings your congregation together in a meaningful way, encourages generosity, and deepens your church’s connection to God’s heart for the poor. It’s a simple, yet powerful experience that engages families, strengthens community, and creates lasting impact both locally and globally.

Why churches say YES to Chosen.

Pastors across Canada are discovering how hosting a Chosen event can truly transform lives. Through the faithful monthly support of Chosen sponsors, children and entire communities are changed. At the same time, church families are drawn closer together—united and energized to live boldly on mission for Christ.

Sponsors look at their cards and they smile and cry seeing which child chose them.
