Our partnership with Compassion International
Maxwell-Storrie-Baynes are very proud of their partnership with Compassion International www.compassion.com. The Compassion mission statement reads: "In response to the Great Commission, Compassion International exists as an advocate for children, to release them from their spiritual, economic, social and physical poverty and enable them to become responsible and fulfilled Christian adults."
Over the past 10 years we have supported and personally visited children in some of the most poverty stricken places in the world including, Nepal, India, Thailand, South Africa and Mexico. Compassion International have such a passion for kids and do their work with such care and professionalism that we have found it contagious and want to be a part of what they are doing. We love the fact that we can build relationships with the children, writing letters, sending birthday and Christmas presents and best of all, visiting them on trips specially organized by Compassion for child sponsors.
While our goal is to try to sponsor as many children as we sell properties what we long for even more is the success of the Compassion mission. We hope that the contagious nature of their love for kids is caught by as many people as possible changing lives one child at a time.
