In the financial year 2023-24, OSCAR Child Sponsorship Programme supported 132 children. This initiative provides children with opportunities to participate in OSCAR football and life skills programmes, offering a safety net that includes football training, mentorship and valuable opportunities for personal and professional development.
Child Sponsorship nurtures meaningful connections between sponsors and children, allowing them to meet during visits to India or international tours, creating lasting memories.
Umesh is an 18-year-old beneficiary, living with his family in a small house in Mumbai. Umesh was selected for the OSCAR UK School Tour in 2019. This experience was life-changing, broadening his horizons and increasing his confidence. The sponsorship also helped him continue his education by providing a scholarship when he faced financial challenges. Now in his second year at university, pursuing a Bachelor of Commerce degree, Umesh expresses immense gratitude for the support.
Our programme has a profound impact, helping children build confidence, develop essential life skills, and envision a brighter future. The transformative power of sponsorship highlights the importance of continued support and investment in these young individuals.
Through the generosity of our sponsors and the dedication of our team, the OSCAR Child Sponsorship Programme makes a meaningful difference, empowering children from underserved communities to achieve their dreams and contribute positively to their communities.
