You can change Abdisa’s life today and end the long wait!

Abdisa is only 11 years old, and he has many worries beyond starting school this September.

He lives with his parents and two brothers in a community severely affected by drought and poverty. Abdisa’s father is a farmer, but his land is too small to produce enough crops to meet the family’s needs. For eight years, Abdisa and his family have carried the weight of uncertainty, waiting for sponsorship.

This fall, sponsoring Abdisa could change everything. Your sponsorship provides financial stability, school tuition, food, clothing, and medical treatment. It also supports inclusive education programs, vocational training, and disability awareness in their rural community, fostering a stronger, more integrated community for everyone.

When attending school is uncertain without support, your sponsorship can turn worry into wonder for children like Abdisa. Visit our website today to sponsor Abdisa or another child in need.

Over the next few weeks, keep an eye on our Karis social media pages for more stories. You can amplify these stories by sharing them. This fall, let’s find sponsors and help provide opportunities for these children to learn, grow, and belong.
