Jean's father died in 2022 and the family have been struggling ever since. They do not own their home, instead living in rented accomodation with no land to try to feed themselves from. Jean's mother, Musabyimana, tries to provide for them as a casual labourer but often fails to provide the basic necessities.
Jean's dreams of becoming a software engineer are slipping away as he is often chased home from school for the fees. Realistically, his only hope of becoming a programmer is through sponsorship.
Transaction Fees
Because the child benefits from the full £20 per month sponsorship, we have included the transaction fees we incur through our website payment processor. You can sponsor directly through the office and pay via standing order to avoid this fee.
Your Welcome Pack
Once you have signed up to sponsor a child, we will send you more information about the child, the area they live and go to school in and how to correspond with them. Many of our supporters want to know how they can give more support and we will outline this as well, although there is absolutely no obligation to do so and we won't keep asking you.
