Serving A Higher
Purpose
You are helping us to change the world one child at a time!
To all of
our clients,
We realized long ago that in order to be successful as a
company we must not only always service your needs at the
highest standards, but also support a higher purpose through
global and social responsibility. Expedite
Express has chosen to support children in need around the
world through
World
Vision and would encourage everyone to support
similar
organizations because of the history of dedication they have
in helping to provide for those most in need.
For years we have received pictures and letters from our
sponsored children and been able to watch them and their
communities grow. However, it was only recently while reading
a letter addressed as "Dear Sponsor" was it that we realized
all of you are their sponsors as well and that these letters
are really also addressed to you!
We have decided to dedicate
this page to those letters (coming soon) and pictures so that all of you can
see what you have helped to create and what
our sponsored
children have to say. Whether you realize it or not, all along
you have all been supporting this cause and these children,
enjoy!

Fact:
Many of the
children and families we sponsor previously lived on
less than $2.00 per day. |
Below are the children that Expedite Express has the privilege
of sponsoring. All pictures have been scanned from our files and
all information about the children has been provided directly
from World Vision in our sponsorship packet.
