Biography
John is a friendly and active little boy. He enjoys playing football (soccer) with his friends and trying to keep up with his older brother. John is the lastborn of three siblings who live with their parents in a small rented room. His parents do their best to make ends meet but they, without adequate education and opportunities, are left struggling to put food on the table, let alone take care of their children’s educational needs. John is currently in grade 5 at Donyo Primary School and believes with the help of God, he can overcome the poverty facing him to become all God has created him to be. Would you be the one to give him that opportunity?
About John's Home: Kitui

The main diet in these areas is corn products, beans, some fruits, and green vegetables such as kale when the weather permits. The main language spoken is Kikamba and the primary religion is Christianity though there is still much traditional superstition and a recent influx of Islam.
