Potential problems when canceling Save the Children
When you try to cancel your recurring Save the Children donation or your sponsorship, you'll probably have to deal with long phone queues and seemingly infinite wait to get a response to your email. Sometimes it can take months—in which period, of course, you're charged as usual—to cancel your donation. It's far from impossible, but you do need some persistence.

Will Save the Children let me pause my subscription instead of canceling?
You can’t technically pause your donation, but you can resume them at any time after cancelation. However, if you want to stop sponsoring a child, they'll probably find another sponsor immediately. While a child can have two sponsors (should you decide to keep sponsoring it after a pause), it is perhaps more useful to choose another child in greater need.
