Meet Patricia
My Story
After losing her father to HIV/AIDS in December 2008, she and her siblings were left under the care of her single mother, who is HIV positive. Her mother earns a meager living by maintaining a maize garden and selling second-hand clothes in a local market. Patricia used to sleep on a papyrus mat in a grass thatched hut and ate only twice a day.
Patricia is now under the full care of New Hope where she dreams of becoming a nurse. With your help we can continue to provide Patricia with all her nutritional, medical, and educational needs and greatly improve her quality of life. To sponsor Patricia, please click the “donate now” button below.
