STORYYusupha's story

Yusupha is growing up in a family that has experienced the loss of a parent and now faces ongoing financial challenges. Yusuphau2019s mother sells bread in their community, and this small business is her only source of income. The little she earns just covers basic food for the family and helps keep the children in school, but it is never enough for all the fees and materials they need. Their father used to provide for the household, and since his death everything has become much harder. Now, the children are sometimes sent home from school because the family cannot afford the required payments, and the constant worry about their education weighs heavily on them. On top of this, they live in a rented house with very high rent, so they can barely manage the housing costs, let alone the ongoing expenses of the childrenu2019s schooling. Sponsorship can help provide stability and contribute towards the child’s education, wellbeing and everyday needs, while supporting the family in a respectful and dignified way.
