Five years ago,
a sweet nine-year-old boy named Mussa (pictured below in a blue shirt) was living in an orphanage when they
had to close their doors. Acenda, a
non-profit organization, was created
to help Mussa and the other orphaned
children have a bright future by placing them with foster families within their
home country of Mozambique.
The foster
families were highly recommended, carefully trained, and have been monitored
over the years. The reports from the project coordinator who visits these homes
are inspiring! The children are loved
and are thriving. They are truly part of
a family! They have been given this
opportunity because of generous donors like you! Can you think of a better gift to give a
child than a loving home?
Mussa's foster family lives in a traditional Mozambican
cement block house. These homes
typically do not have running water, electricity, plumbing, or any other modern
luxury so many of us enjoy. But what
Mussa does have is the blessings of wonderful
foster parents, 2 brothers, and 4 sisters!
Now fourteen-years-old, Mussa is attending the 9th
grade. He is a smart boy who is aspiring
to be an architect when he grows up. He
told us that he likes to spend his free time drawing and playing with friends. He is also known for being very helpful
around the house and for being obedient.
It is only through heartfelt donations, that Mussa has
been able to stay with his foster family. For $50 a month you can sponsor a
child and give them the gift of living in a loving home where they will
continue their education and grow up with a brighter future! Every donation, no matter how small, helps
these children in a big way.
As the season
of giving is upon us, we hope you and your family will make a donation to
Acenda today and support these beautiful children and their foster
families. It is a priceless gift in
these children's future.
