CUBA CHILD SPONSORSHIP

Hola (hello), my name is Sailin Alessandra

    Cuba

  • 16 yrs. old

    11-28-2008

Entered the program: May 2025

Sailin lives with her parents in a two-bedroom apartment with running water and electricity. The family cooks with electricity and propane, and they boil water for drinking. The lighting in Sailin's room isn't very good and makes it hard to study.

Sailin is the only child at home; she is the youngest of four sisters who are all out on their own. Her mother is a civil engineer and her father bakes for a living. Her parents are both Christians.
