Biography
Dennis is a friendly and joyful young man. He is currently in 4th grade at his local Primary School. At home, he lives with both of his parents and three siblings. His parents struggle to take care of the children because of their lack of education and lack of jobs in the community. His parents do not own land so they are also not able to do farming. Sadly, some of his siblings never finished even elementary school but we believe by the grace of God and the help of a friend like you, Dennis and his sister Irene will be able to face the challenges around them and work hard to create a better future for the generations after them. Would you be the one to walk with him?
