Sponsor A Child

Mame Cheikh is a cool, rather shy kind of a boy. However he enjoys playing soccer with his neighborhood friends. Despite his young age he says he wants to become a teacher when he grows up. Mame Cheikh, his siblings and their parents accommodate in two rooms in a big house made of concrete. They live with other extended family members. They have access to running water, and electricity supplies. His father works as a bush taxi driver. His irregular earnings are not more than US $1200 in a year. Not enough to satisfy their basic needs adequately. Mame Cheikh’s mother tries her best to always be sure her son is correctly dressed when he goes to school. Number games are his favorite subject. For fun, Mame Cheikh enjoys playing soccer with his peers. With the support of a caring sponsor, he will enjoy better conditions for learning and achieving his ambitious desire to become somebody so that he will help his parents and his community as well.

Ending child poverty begins with Mame Cheikh. It’s easy. It’s impactful.
