appeson was sponsored within minutes. so, why stop now? there are now sixteen children from haiti who are waiting for sponsors, and have been waiting over six months.
meet richenette. she is nine years old and she needs a male figure in her life…could you (if you’re a guy) or your husband (if you’re a gal) help be that for her?
In her home, Richenette helps by carrying water and helping in the kitchen. She lives with her mother. Her mother is sometimes employed as a farmer. There are 2 children in the family.
Playing with dolls, jumping rope and playing group games are Richenette’s favorite activities. In primary school her performance is average and she also regularly attends church activities and youth group.
Richenette lives in the mountainous community of Damas, home to approximately 1,000 residents. Typical houses are constructed of wood and have corrugated tin roofs. The primary ethnic group and language is Creole.
The regional diet consists of maize, beans, chicken, bread, rice and yams. Common health problems in this area include fever and coughs. Most adults in Damas are unemployed but some work as subsistence farmers and earn the equivalent of $22 per month. This community needs qualified teachers, scholastic materials and employment opportunities.
Your sponsorship allows the staff of Damas Child Development Center to provide Richenette with Bible teaching, health education, medical care, recreational activities, academic support and scholastic materials. The center staff will also provide educational workshops for the parents or guardians of Richenette.
