“From the time you chose me to be one of the people to be sponsored I have really moved a step forward in my life. Since my father died on the 8th September of 2003, my life entirely depended on my cousin, who also has a family to look after. Now you pay an important role in my life such that I cannot think of my dead parents. I appreciate your support and hope that this will continue for the rest of my school life.”
