Donald is an altar server in our mission. He comes from a big village Misokitsy. His very poor family asked the teacher from Befasy to take care of Donald’s education.

He comes from a family of five children.

He comes from a farming family who suffers because of the drought in the area. This situation enables them to pay for the education of Verenantsoa. For several years now they have no rain, therefore their fields do not produce much yields and the prices for the groceries in the store are constantly higher. The school adoption program will help his parents to continue the education of their son. In return – in the future he will be able to help his parents and siblings.

The family is marked with poverty. The drought took away from them the possibility of decent life.

The parents work when they are hired by someone, but this happens only on occasions. They also have health problems and most money are spent for medicine.

The problem in this family is that the father of the child is unknown. The mother is raising the child by herself. She has no work. Lack of food, money and other things are everyday struggle.
