Sponsor A Child

Fathima Rukaiya lives in the scenic Trincomalee area of Sri Lanka, where the gentle breeze of the sea mingles with the warmth of the sun, creating a peaceful environment. She resides with her parents and three siblings, where life is simple yet challenging. Rukaiya assists her mother with daily household chores like fetching water from the communal well and cleaning the house. In her free time, she enjoys playing with her friends, a small source of joy amidst the struggles her family faces. Rukaiya attends junior secondary school, located 3 kilometers away, traveling with her father by bicycle each day. Despite her best efforts, the family struggles to meet basic needs. With an annual income of just $435, her parents find it difficult to provide enough food for their children, let alone cover education expenses. They live in an incomplete house, made of brick walls and a tin sheet roof. Rukaiya’s family needs a sponsor to help secure a better future. Sponsorship would provide essential funds for education, healthier living conditions, and a chance for Rukaiya and her siblings to break free from financial hardship.
