Sponsor A Child

Name: Tharushi

Country: Sri Lanka

Birthday: 07/16/2018

Tharushi Upeksha lives in the tranquil Monaragala District of Sri Lanka, an area filled with vast green fields and rolling hills. She lives with her parents and brother in a simple home, where she often helps her mother with chores like cleaning the house. Tharushi loves to play with toys, which brings her joy during her free time. She attends primary school, located 2.5 kilometers away, and walks to school with her mother. Her family struggles to provide healthy meals and manage the costs of education. Her father works as a seasonal wage farmer, while her mother stays at home. With an annual income of just $600, their resources are limited. They live in their own house, but it is incomplete, with brick walls, a cement floor, and a roof made of clay tiles. They get water from a neighbors well and have electricity, but they lack a toilet facility. By offering your support, you can help change the future for Tharushi and her family. Your contribution will provide them with better living conditions and opportunities for education, helping them build a brighter tomorrow.

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