Absolutely.
Has anyone here been a member of a sponsoring group? Has anyone waited for over three years for a family to arrive?
People get very excited about this program. They respond because they know that someone's in need, and then they wait. Very often, as a sponsorship agreement holder, I am not able to explain to the sponsoring group why this is taking so long. So people move on. It's true. We have seen a decline in interest in the program primarily related to the fact that it has taken so long for people to arrive, and there's no good explanation.
