Dear Friend,

If you’ve been to one of our concerts this year, you may have heard about an organization close to our hearts: Food for the Hungry.

This year has been a blessing for us as we’ve seen God’s hand work in our lives through Food for the Hungry. And we’ve seen so many of you begin the journey of transforming lives one at a time through child sponsorship!

This is the story of one child in desperate need of your help:

"My name is Wako Duba Jillo, and I live in Sololo Makuntano, Kenya. I’m 8 years old, and I live with my mother and three sisters in a cone-shaped hut with mud walls and a grass roof. I’m in second grade, but it has been hard this year to remain in school. You see, my father died last year, and it has been much harder for me and my family since then. Even before his death, we struggled to afford school, medical care, and enough food to eat and clean water to drink. Now it is even harder. My mother also suffers from partial blindness, making it hard for her to raise us on her own."

This story is not unusual for many children in Sololo and all around the world. In Wako’s community, children suffer from malaria, malnutrition, diarrhea, eye infections and a variety of skin infections. It is also the worst AIDS-infected area in the country.

We are asking you to consider partnering with us in helping children like Wako. Food for the Hungry staff in Kenya have committed to monitor these children’s health, teach health and hygiene, guide and counsel students through school, provide resources for educational achievement and equip them with the word of God, but they can’t do it without you!

For only $32 a month, you can help children like Wako and be a part of transforming an entire community!!

Blessings,
33MILES
