Benedicta is a healthy and joyful young girl. She can walk and speak but is still too young to attend kindergarten. She is a restless child who likes to play hide and seek with other children. She likes to share whatever she gets. She lives with her parents and siblings in a family house made of clay. They fetch water from a well. In this remote area, the main occupations of the inhabitants are commerce and self emplotment. Her father is working in a restaurant. As for the mother, she is a housewife. The irregular yearly income of the family is US $790.00 and is not enough to cover the family needs. An extra support from a sponsor can provide this child the chances to grow up in better conditions.
