Dear friend,
Education is a huge part of overcoming the cyle of poverty. With better education comes better jobs and subsequently better wages. But for many children in India living on pennies a day, education is only a dream. Their families can barely afford food for their table, much less uniforms and supplies to allow them to succeed in school.
But thanks to you, children are able to learn! Amir is 15 years old and in the 9th grade. This year, his father couldn't afford to buy him a new uniform, even though his old one was torn and the shoes were broken. But your generosity replaced his uniform along with school supplies, a new backpack, and even an umbrella!
Amir says "I have my full uniform and comfortable shoes and I am very happy. Thank you for helping me in my studies."
Thank you for helping Amir achieve his goal of becoming a software engineer!
Sincerely,
John Sparks
