sponsor a child

Ka wula (hello), my name is Seidu Asuro

  • location

    Ghana

  • 9 yrs. old

    11-03-2014

Entered the program: March 2023

Seidu lives with his parents and two older siblings in a two-bedroom house built with mud and roofed with thatch. The house is in a dilapidated condition and in danger of collapse. Sanitation is very poor. The family has access to electricity but no potable water. The village women and girls must fetch water from a local dam or walk long distances to find other sources. This interferes with their ability to work and go to school.

Seidu’s family is Muslim. His father is unemployed and his mother is a housewife; feeding and providing the basic necessities of the children is extremely difficult. Seidu is the only child enrolled in school; he often goes to school without eating.
