A Mother’s Gratitude

Here is a letter from the mother of a sponsored child in Senegal. GO exists to lift children out of poverty, but we recognize that impacting children has a far greater reach than just their lives. These children bring the impact with them into families, the community, and even the nation. Read this letter from the mother of a sponsored girl in Senegal and hear for yourself the difference that sponsorship is making.

“I want to tell you how grateful I am for the support you are bringing the children in a difficult situation and particularly to my daughter. I want to let you know that my daughter was on the way to dropping out of school because we couldn’t pay for her school fees. Do you know that here in Kaolack, Georges Flattery is the school that all the parents wish to have their kids attending?

But praise the Lord, your ministry came to our help, not only for me but also for many other families and for our nation. It is a nationwide support because when a child grows up and succeeds it is not a benefit for the family only but for the local community and for the whole nation too.

You really do well in helping needy children. These kids could be future presidents, ministers… That’s why I am writing this letter with a lot of joy in my heart and with gratefulness. I am very glad! We have nothing to give you back but the Almighty God will bless you! I am praying for you, and all the people working with you, to the grace of God!

Best regards. Thank you and thank you again.”
