Alinda Maria Promise​

Promise is a 14 year old girl, the older sister to one of our children who has cerebral palsy. Due to extenuating circumstances, she had to miss a substantial amount of school and care for her younger brother and sister. Now that her mother is able to be the primary caregiver again, Promise continues to help her mother in her business and is usually the one who carries her brother for several kilometers to receive physiotherapy. The excessive absences and extra responsibility led to her failing Primary 7, but Promise is a responsible girl who would appreciate the opportunity to try again. 

​

In Uganda and especially here in town in slum areas, young teenage girls like Promise are at high risk of sexual assault, rape, trafficking, and more. Sponsoring Promise provides not only an education, but also protection. 

​

Promise needs one sponsor at $50 or two sponsors at $25 each to put her in school.
