Nicknamed Baba, Karamba is a healthy and joyful young boy. He has started going to kindergrten. He is an intelligent child who likes to go there. He also likes to play football with the other children. He lives with his parents and siblings in their own house made of clay. In this remote village, there is no electric supply. The main occupation of the inhabitants is agriculture. His father is a peasant. During the rainy season, he grows millet, maize and rice. As for the mother she is a housewife but owns her vegetable garden. The yearly income of the family is US $900.00 and is too low to cover the family needs. An extra support from a sponsor can certainly help this child succeed in school.
