Sponsor A Child

Name: Nemithu

Country: Sri Lanka

Birthday: 06/10/2020

Namithu is a mischievous toddler who lives with his brother, sister and parents in a remote village in the Moneragala district of Sri Lanka. The child has a hole in the heart and has been taking treatment since he was two weeks old. He loves to ride the bicycle and play with his brother. His father works as a Cultivator/Laborer and earns an annual income of around USD520/-. His mother attends to the house work and looks after her children. In addition, she also helps his father with the cultivation work. His father’s income is not sufficient for their day to day needs and to provide healthy food to his children. They live in their own partially built house which has been constructed with bricks.  Their floor is of clay and the roof is covered with clay tiles. They have access to proper sanitary facilities, electricity and pipe borne water. Although they too have their dreams of living a comfortable life, it is very difficult to do so, due to their poor income. A little help from a kind person will definitely help Namithu to enjoy some nutritious meals and to look forward to a better future for himself and his family.   

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