My name is John, and I am 12 years old. I live with my mother, and we face daily challenges living in abject poverty. I just graduated from primary education and am excited to be at the start of my secondary education. However, I am in need of your sponsorship to help me achieve my dreams.

With your support of £59 a month, or £708 annually, or a total of £2832, you can help secure my education. Your sponsorship will play a crucial role in enabling me to reach university one day, helping me break free from poverty alongside my mother and contribute positively to our community.

Additionally, we need assistance for our immediate needs. A family parcel costing £90 can keep us fed, and a family cash transfer of £50 would allow my mother to manage our daily expenses.

I want to tell you a bit about myself. I excel in mathematics, with an A average, and I dream of becoming a teacher and mathematics professor someday. I enjoy playing soccer, and my favourite colour is black.

Your support will help me with my education and provide my family with much-needed relief. Thank you for considering my request for sponsorship.
