Sponsor A Child

Name: Erik

Country: Ecuador

Birthday: 12/03/2015

Erik Alejandro, known as Erik is a cheerful and playful boy with black hair, brown eyes and tanned skin. He attends basic school; science is his favorite subject. Erik likes drawing, dancing and, in the future, wants to be a military. Reggaeton is his favorite music. Erik loves bike riding and playing with balls, small cars and games with friends and helps at home tidying up the rooms. Erik and his two siblings live with their parents in a rural village in the mountains. They own a house with basic services, built with cement block walls, cement floor and zinc roof. The mother is a housewife; the father supports the large family. He is a day laborer and gets two hundred and fifty dollars, not enough to cover their big needs. The children and their expenses are growing. The parents need help to move on. They want to educate the children and give them a profession. Open your heart and sponsor Erik. They will receive the benefits of ChildFund programs. With good education and good health care, he will be better prepared to live in a competitive world. Accept the challenge and help us to build a new history for the family.

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