Wonsi

The highlight of our day was meeting Wosni Teji a single mother of six. She told us her story of extreme poverty which led her at one point to seriously consider suicide. Her small hut could not provide protection from the rain and wind for family. Five years ago she entered the World Vision Child Sponsorship program. Eventually, three of her children were sponsored which provided her with food and more. Her sponsoring family provided extra gifts that allowed her to build a house and buy oxen to plow her field with. She now has everything she needs to raise her family and provide them with the basics so that her children can attend school and receive care in times of sickness. Recently, her sponsors provided her with the money she needed to fun electricity to her home so that her children can read at night and move further ahead with their studies. “I’m the happiest woman in the world” she told us today with a huge smile beaming across her face. Just another way that World Vision Child Sponsorship transforms the community and the children.
