What is a Compassion Blogger?

Real estate agent. Musician. Student. Photographer. Mom. Dad. Single. Their lives may vary, but one thing Compassion Bloggers have in common: they’re using their influence in the blogosphere to transform the lives of children in poverty worldwide.

They’re posting banner ads. Telling compelling stories that inspire their readers to sponsor a child. And they’re traveling halfway around the world to see firsthand how Compassion International is releasing more than 1,000,000 children in undeveloped countries from spiritual, economic, social and physical poverty. Read their stories. And find out how you and your blog can make an eternal difference in the life of a child.

Success!

What does success look like for a Compassion Blogger trip?  Well, our recent trip to the Dominican Republic was a success because a group of strangers became fast friends, hundreds of kids were played with, everyone arrived home safely, no one was sick, hurdles were overcome with great flexibility, and in the end more than 500 children were sponsored as a result of our team's well-written posts.

To read them all, go to the Dominican Republic trip page...and stay tuned for news about our next blogging trip.
