Tara’s Story

About 5 years ago I first was introduced to these children and  I fell in love with their smiling faces.  I decided to sponsor a girl who was close to my son’s age. I made the commitment to write to her at least one a month. Through our letters I have watched her grow into a lovely young girl. I have learned about her family and how she is encouraged by my letters. We have built a long lasting friendship.

 This summer I was blessed with being able to visit Huruma. There I met my African daughter face to face. We were able to spend a lot of time together. She introduced me to her friends, showed me the school and showed me what she did for fun.

 During my visit I got to see how Mama’s leadership and love has inspired all of these children. They are very thankful for everything they have,and have been blessed with. All of the children at Huruma have a huge heart for Jesus, are very polite, kind and humble.

 Sponsoring a child has changed my heart. You truly know you are making a difference everyday.
