Jacob W.'s Story

Jacob is 11 years of age. He lives with his mother at a good Samaritan’s home. Jacob’s parents are both HIV positive and separated two years ago. Jacob’s mother is a tailor, she struggles to make ends meet. This is because Jacob’s father does not give child support and this has affected the child’s education. Often times Jacob is sent back home because his mother has failed to buy him a uniform or give him scholastic materials or school fees

At the time of identification, Jacob’s mother was very sick and the child was roaming in the village to look for something to eat from the neighborhood. Jacob wants to become a doctor someday. The family’s current situation can hardly support Jacob to attain his future goal

We believe that a sponsorship opportunity to this child will forever transform his life and bring hope in this family. We recommend him for sponsorship.
