Kenson is a gentle spirited 7 year old from Galette Chambon who lives with his mother, one sister, and one brother. He has been wanting to be in the sponsorship program for a long time, but he gets picked on and bullied a lot because of who his father is, so he was afraid to ask. His father is a voodoo priest in the village, but his mother does not live with him. She became a Christian two years ago and now she and the children live on their own. Kenson’s mother tries to work as a vendor, but she does not make a lot of money. She recently asked if she could put Kenson in the sponsorship program so that he could go to school at Johel’s school and be like the rest of the children that live around him. Kenson loves to play, study, sleep, and do his lessons. He is excited that he can go to school. He loves mathematics and anything to do with numbers. He is really smart and he knows that he can go far in life if he stays in school. He wants to become a lawyer one day, so getting an education is really important to him.
