Overview
Biography
Ngasike is a friendly and joyful young man. He is currently in Kindergarten at Lolemu primary school. At home, he lives with both of his parents and six siblings. His parents struggle to take care of the children because of their lack of education and lack of jobs in the community. The community Ngasike comes from is semi - desert so they are also not able to do farming. Sadly, some of his siblings never even started elementary school but we believe by the grace of God and the help of a friend like you, Ngasike 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?
