Bethsy with her father, mother and 5 siblings lives in a single bed room zinc house with no running water, no electricity and poor toilet facilities. Bethsy has only known poverty throughout her eight years on earth. Her family struggles to eat daily without external assistance. The father is a cobbler and the main provider. He has a monthly income of US$15 that is insufficient to maintain the father alone. Her mother is a house wife and is seriously ill. Bethsy walks barefooted to school every day.
Bethsy does light errands for people in her neighborhood to survive. She walks half a mile to fetch water very early in the morning. Bethsy and her siblings sleep on a mat spread on the floor. Bethsy loves singing and athletics.
Bethsy was delighted to receive the vitamin supplements that you can see her holding in these photos.

Thanks, Kabir, for your generous support that is helping to provide critical nutrition she needs.
