Elijah’s mother abandoned him when he was months old into the hands of his relatives because the father was unable to offer the support needed and his whereabouts were not certain. He lived with a guardian who is a causal laborer working on people’s gardens to earn an average wage of less than a dollar a day. This made providing for the family of twelve children extremely difficult. Elijah became malnourished and also bitten by jiggers all over the body.

While at Berakhah, Elijah plays freely with his friends. He can now express himself freely and looks forward to a brighter future. Through your generous sponsorship he will grow up as a great leader. Thank you! God bless!
