Needs
Since 1992, Children's Cup has had the honor of serving children all over the world. This is only made possible through a community of committed givers. We call them Friends.
We believe big in the power of Friendship! By inviting individuals to come alongside a community of kids to engage in a mutually life-giving friendship - something heavenly takes place.
