Impact stories

Irene is one of our enthusiastic teachers. She is very passionate about working with children. When Irene was six years old, she was brought to us as an orphan. She was given the opportunity to go to school and receive an education. And how special it is that she now teaches at our primary school herself. 

Richard was seven years old when he was brought to us. His parents had passed away. There was no family who could take care of him. Richard attended primary and secondary school with us. He also studied film and video. Richard is grateful for the opportunities he has been given. He now works as a filmmaker. 

As a child, Ivan was completely on his own. His parents had passed away. His grandmother did not have enough money to take care of him. Ivan attended primary school and secondary school with us and even went on to further education. He is still extremely grateful. Now he is an architect and has his own business. 

Salima lost both her parents when she was a child and came from a very poor family. She was brought to us by an aunt, went through our schools, and trained as a teacher. Today, she teaches at our kindergarten with great passion—passing on the love she once received.

Eric was seven when he came to us, never having attended school. His parents had died, and his grandmother could no longer care for him. His life changed completely—he went to school, studied at university, and today works as a doctor in a hospital.

Resty came to us as a child after losing her parents. Thanks to sponsorship, she went to school, later trained as a nurse, and today works in healthcare. She is married, has three children, and is deeply grateful for the opportunities she received.
