THE PHOTO AND INFORMATION BELOW ARE FROM WHEN FALANTHA FIRST ENTERED THE SPONSORSHIP PROGRAM IN 2015. SHE IS NOW 17 YEARS OLD. FALANTHA HAD TO LEAVE THE VILLAGE IN 2019 AFTER HER MOTHER DIED. HER FATHER MOVED THE FAMILY TO ANOTHER VILLAGE WHERE THEY HAVE FAMILY SO THAT HIS SISTER COULD HELP HIM WITH THE CHILDREN WHILE HE FARMED. THE FARM HE WAS WORKING ON CLOSED DOWN, SO HE. MOVED BACK TO GALETTE CHAMBON TO WORK HIS ORIGINAL FARM LAND NOW THAT HIS CHILDREN ARE OLDER. HE HAS TRIED NOT TO REQUEST SPONSORSHIP OF HIS CHILDREN BUT HE HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO AFFORD TO PAY FOR ALL OF THEM TO GO TO SCHOOL. IF FALANTHA IS GOING TO CONTINUE SCHOOL, SHE MUST HAVE A NEW SPONSOR. 

Falantha is eight years old and she lives in Galette Chambo. Her birthday is November 29th. She lives with her mother and father, grandparents, and five brothers and three sisters. Her father is a sugar cane farmer and her mother is a vendor. She sells snacks and cooks spaghetti to sell. When asked what subject she likes best in school, she said she loves everything about Professor Salomon’s school. She said she would love to be a doctor one day when she grows up so she can help people learn how to stay healthy.
