Sponsor A Child

Name: Savin

Country: Sri Lanka

Birthday: 01/01/2021

Savin Methnidu lives in the picturesque Monaragala District, a region where the rural beauty of green fields and gentle hills creates a peaceful atmosphere. He lives with his parents and brother in their own home, which is still a work in progress. The walls are cement, the floor is concrete, and the roof is made of clay tiles. They have tap water, electricity, and a toilet, but the house remains simple. Savin helps his mother by gathering firewood, eager to contribute to the household chores. His favorite hobby is riding his bicycle, which gives him a sense of freedom. He attends preschool, where he enjoys learning and playing with other children. However, his family faces ongoing financial struggles. His father works as a full-time wage farmer, earning an annual income of $1000, which is not enough to provide regular meals or fully cover educational expenses. A sponsor’s support would provide vital resources for this family, helping them access better food, education, and a brighter future for Savin.

Ending child poverty begins with Savin. It’s easy. It’s impactful.
