My name is Jackson. I was six years old when mom died of AIDS leaving my sister and I as orphans. We went to live with grandma but she was too poor to take care of us. We lacked food, school fees, and the house was in very bad shape. I became so angry and frustrated and started to take drugs. I had no hope until CBM helped me with school fees. A mentor in this project had a big
impact on me. I became a Christian and joined his church. After graduating from high school, I worked hard to improve our small farm and eventually earned enough to go to university. I want to be a science teacher. I am excited about my faith and future life. I want to help other youth and am now the supervisor of the Orphans and Vulnerable Children project in my area of Rwanda.

Hi, my name is Runu. I am 7 years old and so excited to be
going to school this year with my older sister, Jhunu.
She is 10 years old and wants to be a nurse so that she can
help people. She likes studying and playing Kabaddi its one
of our favourite games here in India. We are so happy that our
mom and dad agreed to send us to this new hostel so that we
can go to school. We dont have a school in our small village.
Being able to go to school is a dream come true for us.
Meet some of my new friends and learn more about my life
at the girls hostel. Order your free copy of the

developing countries suffer the most in times of drought, climate change, rising food prices, and
other challenges in life. Having alternative sources of income generation can make
the difference between a family getting through times of hardship or becoming completely destitute. These CBM gifts offer support
and training in entrepreneurship, small business creation, financial management, and skills training.

My name is Hawa. I have a young daughter.
I fled war in Somalia where my mom was killed.
I too was shot but survived after months in the
hospital. People who helped me get to Kenya insisted that I marry a relative
to show appreciation for saving my life. A few months later, pregnant with
our child, my husband divorced me and remarried in Somalia.
I work hard, but it was not enough. We often skip meals. CBM has really
helped me in finding friendship, a group that I can belong to (self-help groups
in the slums of Nairobi), and skills training. I can make scarves and diras
(Somali dress). I get a share of the group business profits and am encouraged
to work harder and stay committed to my group. I am also so happy that
I got sponsored to do hairdressing and henna. God willing, one day I will
own a salon and make enough money to provide for my child comfortably.
I am especially grateful for my daughters scholarship.
If not for CBM, she would not have had this opportunity.
She loves school and likes to read.
God is my inspiration.
He always finds a way to help me.
I have come from nothing
and now have peace.
