Location: Guayaquil, Ecuador

Gender: Male

Birthday: July 22, 2019

School: Annunciation School

Hobbies: Playing soccer

Parents' Names and Occupations: Nelson and Evelyn (both temporary day laborers)

Siblings: Nelson (5) and Evelyn (16)

Reason for Scholarship: They are requesting help because there is no school where their child can study. The public school where their child attended last year had to close due to gang activity in the area, and they can no longer afford private school tuition. They have a small business that has just started, but they are only able to work on weekends. They earn about $50 a day. Over three days, that would be $150, which just covers their household expenses, but nothing else.

What Your Sponsorship Provides
When you sponsor a child in Ecuador, your donation supports the child's education in an excellent school.  These children come from very impoverished areas, and the local schools are greatly lacking.  Your donation will not only allow a child to receive a very good education, but will also allow him or her to experience the love of God in a faith-filled community.  Additional donations can be made here to help support children without sponsors as well as support additional needs of the children, such as gifts, uniforms and school supplies.

What You'll Receive
As a sponsor, you will receive a newsletter with general updates from our communities in India and Ecuador as well as a letter from your adopted child 3 times per year:  Easter, early fall and Christmas.  We also encourage you to send letters or cards to your adopted child by creating and logging into your account on our website.
