Good morning, friends! Over the last few days, I’ve received and opened around 200 letters from World Vision! These letters are the annual progress reports for each of our sponsored kids, so while it’s already quite the pile, I’m still expecting more. These progress reports list all the basics (name, age, health status, grade in school/if…
Happy #sponsoredkids Friday, friends! Today, I get to introduce you to a few new kids. I’m highlighting several because I got some interesting letters about each of these kiddos this week that I wanted to share with you all. I received 4 separate letters this week informing me that 4 of the kids we sponsored have had life changes that make…
Happy #sponsoredkids Friday, everyone! Let’s jump right in and meet this week’s kiddo, Jean Francois Ngorkhanuel! JFN was born on Oct 12, so he will turn 8 tomorrow! He’s from Niakhar, Senegal, where he lives with his grandparents. He loves to play soccer and his favorite subject in school is singing (a kid after my own heart). Happy Almost-Birthday, JFN! While I’m tempted to…
Happy Friday, dear readers! Today, I want to introduce you to our one and only sponsor child in Mali. This is Goundo Hamidou from Diema, Mali and she is 4 years old.

Happy #sponsoredkids Friday! Today, let’s meet Diouma! She’s 8 years old (will turn 9 on Oct 30th) and lives in Tattaguine, Senegal. I wonder if she knows Mohameth (from last week) or his family! Diouma is young, so is still figuring out her hobbies. However, her profile mentions that she likes local traditional games and my hunch is that she’s not just making…
Happy almost-weekend and happy #sponsoredkids Friday! Today, I want you to meet this cutie, Mohameth. He is from the Tattaguine region of Senegal (about 2 hours from the coast). He is 15 and shares a birthday with Taylor Swift (don’t ask me why I know that)! He has 1 brother and 1 sister and lives with his parents. He loves football and…
Happy #sponsoredkids Friday! After a lovely vacation last week, I am back in the home office and excited for another Sponsored Kids post. Hope you all have had a great week! I want to start by sharing an encouraging little tidbit I saw on our World Vision account this week: “Your sponsorships are changing the lives of 880…
Happy #sponsoredkids Friday! I have NO idea how it’s Friday, but I’m glad it is, because that means we get to meet another one of our WV kids! Today, I’d like to introduce you to Aliou. He is 14 years old (born on July 4th) and lives in Niakhar, Senegal. His father is a farmer laborer, his mother a housewife,…
