Entered the program: January 2019
Joram lives with his uncle and eight other children. His father passed away a few months after he was born. Joram's mother tried her best to take care of him but her financial situation was too poor, so she gave Joram to his grandmother while she went in search of work. His grandmother eventually passed him on to his uncle's care. Joram tries to spend as much time as possible with his mother when he can.
His sisters Belinda and Bridget, and cousins, Trevor and Simon, are also in the Light A Candle program.
As a child sponsor, you’re providing things like nutritious meals, safe drinking water, education, health care, and spiritual instruction. Beyond meeting their critical needs, you’re building a priceless personal relationship with your child, helping them discover their true worth and God-given potential.
Choose a boy or girl to sponsor with an ongoing commitment of at least $38 a month.
You’ll receive a sponsor kit which includes your child’s profile and photo. You’ll also receive quarterly updates on your impact and letters from your child!
You can build a relationship with your child by sending photos, emails, letters and cards. You can even visit your child if you go on a short-term mission trip with a group!
Your sponsorship helps provide for your child’s physical, educational and spiritual needs. These needs are met differently depending on the community your child is in, but include things like:
We specialize in quality mission trips, affording you the opportunity for meaningful face-to-face time with your child.
