Child Available for Sponsorship: Bella Egessa

Bella is 10 years old and comes from Makina village. Bella joined Syonga OVC School 2 years ago, after the death of his father George died of Tetanus disease.

Bella has more 10 siblings who would desire to be in school as well. Unfortunately, it has not been possible that way, most of them have not continued with school due to lack of scholastics and fees needed at their respective schools. Bella’s mother cannot afford to meet all the academic and physical needs for Bella and the siblings, because she was just a housewife before the husband died. Everything became worse when the husband died and left all the children in the hands of the wife.

Bella and 5 of his siblings shifted to stay with the grandmother, Susan Rose who is 75 years old. She is a committed member of Syonga church since 2007; she led all her family to know Christ at Syonga church. Unfortunately, Susan lost more 4 of her sons and daughters; they died and left children in desperate situations. The children were brought to be cared by her, she has been so hard working to bring up many of her orphaned- grandchildren together with the Church support. She is now getting weak, the need is still big, the challenge still stands...how will Bella, his siblings and others finish school?

We still trust God to provide opportunity for Bella’s sponsorship, when all goes well the burden will be offloaded for this family as we look forward for Bella’s academic future.

If you're interested in sponsoring Bella for one year, the cost is only $75. Your sponsorship provides the following for one year: school uniforms, socks & shoes, books, paper, pencils, crayons, and a school bag. It also covers daily nutrition and tuition, plus it contributes to the school building fund.
