Philip lives with his parents, three siblings and several extended family members. 17 people share a ten-room mud house with an aluminum roof and a mud cement floor.
Philip’s family is Christian. His father is a small-hold farmer who cultivates maize and peanuts to provide for the family. As he is unable to farm in large quantities, the food supplies do not last through to the next harvest. Usually they have only two meals a day. Sometimes the children go to school without eating and have no food all day until the evening meal. Philip’s parents struggle to provide for all of their children’s needs, especially education. Without the assistance of CHG, Philip would not be able to attend school regularly and have the books and supplies he needs.
Plus bonus group fundraising ideas!
