May 2008:
This is Michael Shadrack From Eldoret – we sponsor him.
It’s only £28 per month, or £336 per year.
As he’s only 2 years old (2008) that’s about £5400 we’ve signed up for over the next 16 years.
As a teacher on about £30k per year that means I can sponsor his life off just a couple of month’s wages in total!
Realistically I’ve got guitars worth that much –
– HOW MUCH WOULD YOU GIVE FOR A LIFE!
Jan 2009:
We are so thankful that you have made a long-term commitment to personally invest in Leonida L’s life.
Leonida is 7 years old and was orphaned in 2006. Since then she has been cared for by her older siblings at their home in the Kambi Teso area of Eldoret. During the post-election violence of 2008, the family home was burned down by a feuding family, and they were not able to salvage anything from the fire. None of the older siblings have any reliable source of income, and most are involved in the local, and illegal, alcohol brewing that takes place. There is very little attention given to any of the younger children, and Leonida often has to fend for herself as well as her younger siblings. Leonida would like to attend the local primary school, if she had (And now she’s got it!) the financial support to pay for school uniform and supplies. Please pray for Leonida regularly.
