Rivens F.

Birthday: November 26, 2004 Sponsor #: 2015-00-137JM

Rivens is sixteen years old and his birthday is November 26^th. He has been in the sponsorship program since he was eleven years old, and he has depended upon sponsorship to be able to go to school. If he isn’t sponsored, he can’t afford to go to school. Rivens lives with his mother and father and one brother and three sisters. His mother stays home with the children while his father goes into Port au Prince very day to work. His family moved to Galette Chambon after living in the horrible tent city for several years. He hated living there. It was dirty and scary. It makes him sad when he thinks about how they lost their house in the earthquake, but he is so happy that he and his family moved to Hope Center village and have a safe place to live now. Rivens loves to run and he can run very fast. His favorite thing to do is help his mother by working in a garden that they have planted beside their house. He also loves to go to VBS at Hope Center. When he grows up he wants to learn about agriculture and become a large scale farmer to sell vegetables to grocery stores. He graduated from the elementary school and moved to the high school two years ago and he works very hard in school. He makes good grades and is a good example to others in school. He SERIOUSLY needs a new sponsor so that he doesn’t have to drop out after coming so far.

**Please note that each year, we depend on village volunteers whose understanding of the measuring process may create variations in accuracy. Often times, children do not know their age or birthday, and sometimes they measure smaller or larger because of illness. We do the best we can to give accurate updates, but there are cultural constraints that we cannot avoid. Also, these measurements were made in March of 2022. The child may or may not have promoted to the next grade by the 2022-2023 school year. Final exams had not been taken when the update was made. You can assume that the child will move on to the next grade up, but it is not guaranteed. Thank you for your understanding.
