Sponsor A Child

Name: Jildo

Country: Uganda

Birthday: 07/19/2018

Am glad to introduce to you Jildo, he is a social and friendly young boy who stays with both parents and siblings in a remote village found in Northern Uganda, he is a middle child in the family who likes helping in house chores such as sweeping the compound. During his free time, he likes making toys from banana fiber for him to play with friends. The father struggles to fend for the family being the sole breadwinner. His source of livelihood is working as a fishmonger in the village market where he gets little income of US dollars 15 which has always not been sufficient given that the cost of living in his community is too high. He also does small scale farming so as to get additional income to support the family but the yields got are normally too low due to different climatic changes, paste and diseases that normally eat up the crops planted leaving them with very little to survive on thus having a meal a day that is not healthy for the children. Your kind sponsorship will cause tremendous change in the life of Jildo with his family.

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