Eddinus Chisimeliri Ugwuede
Eddinus lives with his mother, Lilian Ugwuede, following the death of his father in 2023. After his father passed away, the family's belongings and property were taken by his brother, leaving Lilian without the resources she had depended on to care for her children.
Since then, Lilian has struggled to provide food and other basic needs for the family. She has been unable to find steady employment and has little support to help her care for the children.
Despite these challenges, Lilian is determined to provide Eddinus with an education. With the support of a sponsor, Eddinus would have the opportunity to attend school regularly, learn alongside his peers, and continue building a brighter future.
About my community:
St. Maria Goretti (Nsukka)
For a long time, the Diocese of Nsukka has suffered from kidnapping and slaughter at the hands of multiple terrorist groups. As CARITAS provides a Catholic education to these suffering young children, we pray for the intercession of St. Maria Goretti to help them be courageous and holy in spite of all their difficulties.
