The Marsh Children's Home provides a safe environment. The children at The Marsh Children's Home are under adult supervision at all times, whether they are at the Marsh Home, at school, at church or on an outing. Parents who relinquish parental custody to The Marsh Children's Home for child care are allowed supervised visits to their children, but are not allowed unsupervised access to The Marsh Children's Home grounds.

Additionally, because our primary concern is the safety of the children, all potential Child Sponsors are checked for criminal records and against the United States Department of Justice National/State Sex Offender Registry to ensure they do not present any type of threat to the children at the Marsh Children's Home. By applying to sponsor a child, potential Child Sponsors consent to this evaluation of suitability. Marsh Children's Home reserves the right in its sole discretion to refuse any applicant for sponsorship or any donation.

The Marsh Children's Home keeps all personal information of our sponsors and financial donors in secure locations at the Marsh Home and/or at the business office of Marsh Children's Home Acapulco, Inc. We do not share your personal information outside these two entities — ever! Please read our privacy policy for more information.

The Marsh Children's Home collects personal information when you fill out our online form here. We NEVER share this information with anyone. Period.

Marsh Children's Home Acapulco, Inc. — a bona fide 501(c)(3) Non-Profit Corporation based in Tucson, Arizona — proudly uses Paypal for our Internet Credit Card Transactions.

Paypal allows our Sponsors and Donors to make Financial Donations safely and securely using their favorite credit cards. We accept Visa®, Mastercard® and American Express®, among others. Plus, you don't even need to have an account at Paypal to use your credit cards.

Paypal has phased out old 1024-bit SSL Certificates (G2) in favor of 2048-bit certificates (G5), and is moving towards a higher strength data encryption algorithm to secure data transmission, SHA-2 (256) over the older SHA-1 algorithm standard.

In other words, Paypal is now more secure than ever. All of the Sponsors and Financial Donors on the Marsh Children's Home website are able to enter their names, addresses, telephone numbers and credit card numbers, safely and securely, without worry. Your personal information is safe with us.
