Marvin is one of five children in his family. In 2014, his father tragically passed away from malaria. After his passing, the family was forced to leave their home and seek refuge with Marvin’s maternal grandmother.
Marvin’s mother now carries the heavy responsibility of caring for a household of 15 people. To provide for them, she travels from village to village, working in other people’s gardens to earn a small income that barely sustains their basic needs.
Marvin recently lost his long-time sponsor and is now in urgent need of a new one to continue his education. With support, Marvin can stay in school and work toward a brighter future for himself and his family.
