Age: 14 School: Secondary 1
Catherine “Cathy” has never known her mother and lived with her father, a fisherman, until he abandoned her with his parents when Cathy was just 4 years old. Her grandparents struggled with domestic violence in their home and abandoned Cathy four years ago. She has been taken in by Pastor Charles and Judith, who work with us at HUM, and sponsorship will help them care for Cathy and will pay her school fees at HUM’s Genesis Primary School.
Cathy loves going to church and Awana Club and is also learning a Biblical world view at school. She loves going to Genesis and is looking forward to secondary school in February. She is very grateful for her home with the pastor’s family and enjoys knitting and reading story books. She recently received a sponsor, but will need a scholarship sponsor to help with the increased educational costs that come with secondary school. Sponsorship will offer Cathy hope for a future in which she can care for herself despite the many losses she has endured and is overcoming to the glory of God.
Sponsorship need: $60/month
