I became involved in ChildFund International in 2006, by sponsoring one child, a girl from Brazil. I sponsored her for six years, from the time she was 8 till she was 14. At that time, her dad got a better job in another part of the country, and they moved out of the ChildFund sponsorship area. I think about her sometimes and hope the family improved their financial conditions, and that she is doing well. She will be 19 now.
I now sponsor four children through ChildFund International, one in India, one in Uganda, one in Sierra Leone, and one in Kenya. But, I have never forgotten my first child, that little girl from Brazil.
Come and visit her. Why not? What does hinder you?
Well, I don't know where she moved to. I had her address when she was signed up to be sponsored through ChildFund, but they did not give me a forwarding address for her when she left the program. And, Brazil is a big country. :) ChildFund does arrange visits for sponsors who want to visit their sponsored children in person. But, since this girl isn't in the program anymore, that wouldn't apply. Wherever she is, I do wish her well, and am glad I got the opportunity to get to know her through letters, and to be her sponsor for the time that I did.
I can help you. If you know the city where she lives now, it won't be a difficult job.
