Faustino is a boy who lives with his separated mother, who is a subsistence farmer, whose main activity is growing staple food of each season for consumption, despite the aridity of the soils. Their home, which is self-built, is made of concrete blocks, roofed with zinc sheets and dirt floor. Faustino is an elementary school student, whose favorite subject is Portuguese and aspires to become a mechanic in the future. He enjoys going over the lessons in his spare time, and for recreation he likes to play football. He also helps with household chores what consists of grazing the family goats as well. The family follows a religion named Zion Union. They enrolled him in the ChildFund program so that he can benefit from support that will help ease his dire situation through access to basic services in the community.
