I just wanted to show you the difference that having a sponsor makes. Brighton Ng’ambi was traumatised and malnurished when I first wrote about him. He was covered in lice and one of the women volunteers gently helped him shower and get clean. He was then given clothes and fed. However, it was just too much for him to be with the other children so Levison sat quietly with him in the library while he ate his food.

I appealed for a sponsor and, thankfully, a kind lady came forward and has been sponsoring him for two years. He has had a monthly food parcel to take home to his extended family that he lives with. He also comes to the weekly feeding programme. Life is still hard for Brighton and he is still hungry but he has hope. His smile has returned and what a lovely smile it is. He has a brighter future thanks to his sponsor and the team in Malawi.

Please read his story that I wrote two years ago and look at the photos then and now. If you think you could help make a young person’s life better then please do get in touch. There are many more like Brighton who need our help. It’s only £25 p/m to sponsor a child or young person….that’s less than £1 per day. You can sponsor as an individual or why not share the cost with a friend? contact_us@changinglivesmalawi.com Together we can change lives but we need you on our team! Please help a child like Brighton.

A little boy in need of your help – Brighton Ng’ambi

Brighton needs someone to take a chance on him…to change his life. How many traumatic experiences has he had in his young life? I don’t know. This is what I do know;

Brighton is an orphan. Both his parents have died.
Relatives are supposed to be looking after him but he is fending for himself a lot of the time.
Brighton is malnourished and hungry. He told Levison that some days he eats once. Other days he has nothing and has to try and find some fruit to eat in bushes.
Brighton is in his first year at primary school. How can he even concentrate at all and learn anything when he will be so tired and hungry?
Brighton will be cold at night time. Does he sleep properly as he’s cold and hungry?
He was dirty and dressed in rags. He had head lice. Thankfully, he was able to have a shower and given nice, clean clothes and shoes before having a nutritious lunch.

We want this little boy to be matched with a sponsor to allow him to have ‘extras’ that aren’t really extra things at all….they are essentials. Brighton needs more clothes, he needs a blanket, he needs a monthly food parcel and to be encouraged to come to the feeding programme each week. He needs someone to keep an eye on him and nurture him. Levison and his team can do all this but having a sponsor will help Brighton to feel better quicker. Being matched with a sponsor will let him know that he is important, that people care about him. Levison is a trained councillor so he can spend time with Brighton helping him. Brighton needs a team of people around him to ensure that he begins to thrive. Can you be that person? Or can you and a friend split the monthly cost of £25 to support Brighton?

Brighton is a little boy who has found himself in awful circumstances, through absolutely no fault of his own. He needs our help. Can you join Brighton’s team? Can you help this little boy? Can you help him to have something to smile about? contact_us@changinglivesmalawi.com thanks for reading, Sarah x
