Save Methmi

Methmi from Sri Lanka is one of the thousands of children waiting for a sponsor. For about a dollar a day, you can give her a chance to escape poverty by providing her with some of life's basic needs — education, health care, and nutritious food. Find out more about Methmi's life.

Methmi is a healthy child. She likes to play dolls and be with her parents and listen to nursery rhymes. She is the only child in the family. She lives with her mother and father in their house which has only one room. Its walls are of bricks and the floor is of hard pressed earth. The roof is thatched with dried and woven coconut leaves. They do not have proper toilet. They get water from a well of a neighbor. Her father is a laborer. He does not have a regular income because he does not get work every day. Sometimes he has to go out of his village to find work. His monthly income is always less than US $ 50. This low irregular income is not sufficient for him to provide the basic needs for the family. The child lacks nutritious meals and other essential needs. Her mother does the household work and looks after the family. We hope that with your sponsorship this child will be able to grow up well with proper nutrition, healthcare and other essentials that her parents cannot provide for her.
