Written by: Aaron Armstrong


Letter writing might be a bit of a lost art—but letters really do have a positive impact on your Compassion child, even if you don’t realize it. Watch as Averil Shadd shares about the relationship she’s developed with Abner, her Compassion child from Nicaragua, and the difference she believes it makes in his life and her own:

“Letter writing is really important because it gives us a chance to have the lines of communication open… to show [Abner] that I’m interested in what he’s doing…”
