Asseta lives with her parents. She has six siblings that all live at home and attend school. Her father works in the fields trying to cultivate enough food in the 2 month rainy season to last his family the whole year. He needs to be able to sustain the 14 people that live in his home. Asseta’s mother sells cold water in the village to make a little bit of money that can be used to send some but not all of her children to school. Without her sponsorship, Asseta would not able to afford to attend school. She will also receive a hot meal each day and access to free medical care, should she need it. Most importantly, she will hear the gospel and discipleship from teachers that love the Lord.
