My Story

Though both of Ronald’s parents are still living, they are currently over sixty years old and increasingly feeble.  Ronald’s father was blinded by an infection several years ago, leaving the mother to manage the family’s small farm by herself.  They live in the countryside of Budaka in a small, grass-thatched hut. 

Before coming to New Hope, Ronald rarely went to school and spent most days digging in the garden, fetching water from a well three kilometers away, and tending to the neighbor’s cow.  Ronald’s parents could only provide one meal a day--lunch--and were unable to pay any of Ronald’s medical fees.

Ronald is now under the full care of New Hope Africa Children Ministries.  Ronald’s dream is to become a doctor because, in his words, “doctors help people.”

Ronald has already found a sponsor.  Please select another child to sponsor. Thank you.
