Sponsor A Child

Name: Sandek

Country: Philippines

Birthday: 02/26/2014

Sammy, known fondly as Sandek among his family and friends, resides in a village nestled amidst picturesque mountains, quite a distance from the town. The villages transportation primarily relies on motorcycles, locally referred to as skylab. Their modest abode, constructed from semi-concrete materials, is complemented by a backyard garden yielding vegetables like eggplant and okra. They fetch water in the spring. Sandeks father works as a motorcycle driver, while his mother serves as a housemaid, collectively earning a monthly income of $70, sufficient to meet their basic needs. They utilize electricity for lighting and firewood for cooking. Sandek is enrolled in primary school. He excels in both writing and reciting during class activities. His palate favors fried fish and boiled egg, and he finds joy in playing basketball and biking with his elder sister and peers. Enjoying movies with his siblings is among his cherished pastimes. Driven by his aspiration to serve his community, Sandek harbors the ambition of becoming a policeman someday, embodying a desire to contribute positively to society and uphold justice.

Ending child poverty begins with Sandek. It’s easy. It’s impactful.
