"Erica is a cheerful 7-year-old girl with a big smile and a big heart for school. Every day she enthusiastically walks to Lusala Primary School, which is fortunately close to home. Her favorite activity is writing, and she dreams of becoming a teacher when she grows up."

My story

Erica lives with her parents, Benard and Leah, in a village in the countryside. Both parents do not have a fixed income and try to grow just enough food for the family with small-scale farming. Erica has three older sisters – Joan, Charity, and Sharon. Unfortunately, their only brother has passed away, which is a great loss for the family.

Why Erica needs our help

The financial situation at home makes it difficult for Erica to go to school. School fees, a uniform, notebooks, pens and shoes are simply not affordable. Through the Sadiki Kids Program, Erica gets the chance to continue going to school, with everything she needs to do so. Thanks to this program, she receives three nutritious meals a week, learning materials and personal guidance. With your support, you will not only give Erica access to education, but also hope, structure and the chance to build her future.

Erica is supported by impact partner Sadiki Kids Program

We believe that outreach and sharing the gospel go hand in hand. That is why we support people not only practically but also spiritually—with attention, love, and the belief that every person is valuable. Self-reliance is central to everything we do. We want to help people stand on their own two feet, develop their talents and face the future with confidence. We do this by investing in education, small-scale businesses and local initiatives — always in close collaboration with our colleagues and partners on the ground. Sadiki Kids Program The Sadiki Kids Program is the child sponsorship program of the Sadiki Foundation. Thanks to this program, children who grow up in poverty are given the opportunity to go to school, develop and grow up healthy. As a sponsor, you contribute for only €10 per month to school fees, learning materials, hygiene products, three nutritious meals a week and personal guidance at school and at home. But your involvement goes beyond just financial support. Through the Nofam app, you will receive photos, stories and updates, so that you can really sympathize with the child you are sponsoring. You not only contribute to better school results, but also to more stability, safety and self-confidence in a child's life. Together, we make a difference — one step at a time, one child at a time.
