Tessie F.

Birthday: May 12, 2009
Sponsor #: 2016-00-004JHCM

Tessie is seven years old and her birthday is May 12^th. She lives with her mother, father, three brothers, and grandfather in Hope Center Village. Before she moved to Hope Center Village, she lived in Delmas in the tent city because her family lost everything they had in the earthquake. She was only three years old when the earthquake hit, but she remembers being very scared that day. She was with her mother and they were not at home when it hit. She is glad because if they had been at home, they would not have survived. Now she has a new home that is safe and strong. She loves living in her new home because she has lots of friends and she can walk with her friends to school. She is excited about the sponsorship program because it will be good for all of the children in the village to eat. Tessie’s favorite subject is grammar and her favorite thing to do when she isn’t at school is play with her baby dolls. She wants to be a nurse when she grows up.

**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.
