sponsor a child

Miredita (hello), my name is Laura

  • location

    Kosovo

  • 11 yrs. old

    09-01-2012

Entered the program: October 2023

Laura lives with her parents, grandmother, and four siblings in a three-room unfinished house on their great grandfather’s property. For many years, the family was renting and needed to find a better living situation. Their great grandfather asked all of his children to pitch in to help build Laura’s family a small home. However, only the bathroom has been completed. The whole family of eight shares one room. It is very difficult for Laura and her sisters, Gjulijeta and Xhuliana (also in the Corner Stone program), as space and privacy are at a minimum; they are praying that soon God will provide the means to finish the home.

Laura’s mother stays home to care for the family and her father tries hard to find work as a painter. Laura’s grandmother cleans a pharmacy to help provide for the family.
