I've been sponsoring since Sep 2005 and have only received annual updates. This consists of a Christmas card with a recent photo and a form (fill in the blanks) kind of update- health, grades in school, etc. I haven't received much more from him/them. To be fair I have not sent a letter in at least two years but I know that my last one was not responded to. At the onset I was hoping for more regular correspondence but he seems to be doing alright though exactly how much of my monthly contribution actually reaches him and his community is a bit of question mark.
I used to give in to the monthly cards but have since declined. I'm happy that he is doing fine and will stay with WV but if I were to sponsor another child, I would probably seek out a non-denominational organization; Plan Canada looks good.
