Miriam's father abandoned the family. Miriam's mother is very young and did not have the chance to complete her own education. She cannot find many jobs in the Huruma slums, so the two young children in this family are going hungry. Sponsorship will meet Miriam's basic needs, even during this hard time for her family. 

Your sponsorship will help this child grow up to be like Jesus by providing them with nutritious meals, clean water, new clothing, a quality education, opportunities to participate in extracurricular activities, basic medical care, and spiritual guidance from local Christian ministers, teachers and community leaders.
