Background: The family lived with their mother until the father suffered an injury and the mother left them (3 years ago). The father doesn’t have a permanent job, older brother works with father and the younger kids go to secondary school.

Health Issues: Johny was involved in an accident that badly damaged his knee 6 years ago, he is in constant pain and is unable to afford surgery to get it straightened.

Living Conditions: The family share one room between the four of them and have lived this way for 6 years, they are in need of water buckets for daily use, they struggle with food and when possible have 1 meal per day. Some days they can’t afford transport to school for the kids.

Dit zijn de mensen waar we mee te maken hebben. Johny is een van de vele mensen uit het outreach project. Ik hoop dat mijn partnership sponsoren kan gaan aanleveren om deze mensen te helpen. Dit verdienen ze gewoon!
