Francesca D.

Birthday: November 7, 2014 Sponsorship #: 2019-00-052S

Francesca is a shy little four year old from the village of Galette Chambon. She lives with her parents, three sisters, and one brother. Her parents have no dependable source of income other than farming in the village. With draughts and hurricanes, it makes farming very difficult. Last year, her parents were able to sell a goat to pay for her school and her sister’s school, Their older sister actually has a sponsor and their baby brother is not old enough for school yet. Her parents believe that if Francesca and her sister Sandia could both find sponsors, it would relieve a huge financial pressure on the family and the girls would not have to worry about whether or not they would be able to go to school from one year to the next. Francesca loves to dance and sing and play with with her friends. She is not sure what she wants to be when she grows up, but like her sister, she thinks that being a doctor would be pretty cool.

**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.
