Overview
Biography
Susan is a joyful and beautiful little girl. We met her during a camp for other children when she and her siblings came and asked if they could be a part of us. We were saddened when we found out they were living with their very old grandmother (their parents separated and both left home). Susan and her siblings, including her 9 year old sister, had never been to school because their grandmother was unable to pay the small fee required. A one time gift has allowed us to buy uniforms for these dear kids and to enroll them in school but they will need a long term friend to walk with them through their education journey and to encourage them as they fight to become all the Lord has created them to be. Would you consider being the hands and feet of Jesus for Susan?
