Snap.

Reverse Sponsor-A-Child.

From the website: "We find an appropriate sponsor family from the other side of the disparity divide, either in North America or abroad. We work with nonprofit organizations to find sponsors who know firsthand how affluence in one place can fuel poverty in another."

More on this later. My interest is piqued. I can't tell if this would be just what some kids need (on both sides of the class divide -- prejudice and class chips cut both ways) or the kind of thing I've heard BC Dean Brinton Lykes disparage as "going to see the poor in their natural habitat." Either way, the discomfort is almost palpable.
