Getrude

Getrude's father died soon after she was born and her mother, about a year later. Her grandmother took her in but struggled to provide for her and she was not attending school. Getrude loves the color red and eating nshima with fish. For fun, she likes to jump rope. Her ambition is to become a doctor.

Getrude's Unmet Needs

Basic Needs

Sponsorship helps to provide a secure environment where at-risk students live and receive all necessary clothing, food, lodging, and school supplies. Full-time home parents supervise and are available to the children 24/7, providing them with the nurturing care and support they need.
