Sponsor A Child

Name: Malick

Country: Senegal

Birthday: 10/12/2018

Malick is a rather shy but sociable little boy. He is at a local school. Malick, his siblings and their parents accommodate in a four roomed family house made of concrete. They have no access to electricity or running water supplies. They fetch water from the public well, and solar lamps are their source of lighting. Malick’s father works as a mason. His irregular earnings are estimated about US $ 1,464 in a year. He strives to satisfy the basic needs of his family. Nevertheless they have 2 modest meals a day. Malick is well looked after by his relatives. His parents and the other extended family members accommodate in 6 rooms made of concrete in a big family house. They fetch water from the public well, and kerosene is their source of lighting. The women in the house cook in shift. Luckily everyone in the house is ready to help each other out. If someone is willing to sponsor Malick, will enjoy better living conditions; so his parents would be forever grateful for.

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