Christela M.

Birthday: June 7, 2008
Sponsorship #: 2016-00-031JHCM

Christela is a sweet seven year old with an adorable smile. Christela lives in Cadasse with her seven siblings. She has four sisters and three brothers and they live with their father. Her mother left their family when Christela was a baby. Her dad works on whatever construction site he can get a job for the day. This is a hard job to have since he has to commute to the worksite every day and it is hard to find work. Her father also struggles with a rare skin condition that prevents him from being able to keep a steady job. He is a regular at the medical clinic where Tony treats his skin condition at least three days a week to keep it under control. It makes things very difficult for the family. Christela loves to help out her family by washing the dishes and keeping the house clean. She also loves to participate in activities at the BGM church. She wants to become a vendor selling rice and cooking one day.

**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.
