Since he's off my list now, I figured I'd post a few more kids still in need of sponsors. Today I figured I'd concentrate on the older kids since they hold a special place in my heart. These kids (young adults really) are 18 years or older so they have less than 4 years left in the program (some are older yet, so they have even less time). If you want to sponsor someone for only a couple years, these kids would be perfect since the time frame is shorter than sponsoring a 4 year old. Older kids are awesome too because they can write their own letters, write longer letters, and you can be a great friend/mentor to them for the last few years of the program.
So without further ado, I present the young adults.....
Tanzania:
Rose
Rose's birthday is November 28, 1995 (so she's 19 years old...will be 20 in November). She only has 2 years and 9 months left in the program so it would be awesome if she had a stable sponsor for the remainder of her time in the program to give her advice and encouragement. She's only in middle school currently so your support would mean so much to her and could help her finish off school hopefully! We've received report cards for some of our Tanzania kids so you might even get to see how she's doing in school too! She's in the same project that our oldest (Selemani) was from (he left the program when he moved out of the area a little before he turned 21).

India:
Chandralega
Chandralega is from India and her birthday is November 13, 1996 (so she's 18 currently...will be 19 in November). She's from the same project that our Priyanga is from (our girl is 15 now). Our girl from this project writes to us in English so it makes it easy to send her things in English as well. She did write to us once in her other language (but also translated her own letter) so it was pretty seeing the other language too. Chandralega lives with her parents and there are 4 kids in the family. I'm assuming that she's probably getting close to graduating HS but would then go on to skills training or even college hopefully depending on the situation. She likes singing and art.
Rwanda:
We have an 18 year old girl from the same project as the next 3 kids. She writes nice letters when she's able to (since she's at boarding school for her high school....so these kids might be as well, in which case they would write when they go to the project during breaks and such). Our girl Diane might even know some of these kids since they are all similar aged (which is why I'm trying not to sponsor them myself since my letters would be the same and I'd hate for them to compare...lol).
Furaha
This young lady- Furaha has a birthday on July 26, 1996 (so she's 18 currently but 19 in July). She lives with both parents and there are 3 kids in the family. She's in High School currently.

Jean Paul
This young man has been waiting 211 days for a sponsor! Jean Paul's birthday is October 16, 1996 (so he's 18 years old now, 19 in October). He lives with his parents and there are 7 kids in the family so I'm sure he and his family could really use the support of a loving sponsor. He likes volleyball, soccer, and he's in High School. Consider sponsoring Jean Paul to end his long wait!

Ruvuta
Ruvuta has been waiting for 230 days for a sponsor. His birthday is May 25, 1996 (so he's 18, but soon to be 19). He lives with his parents and there are 5 kids in his family. He likes soccer, basketball, marbles, and singing in the choir. He's in High School as well. Help end his wait for a sponsor!

Please let me know if you end up sponsoring any of these kids since I'd love to find out how they do. Thanks again for praying for these kids and feel free to pass on their information if you have a friend that might be interested in sponsoring them as well. Thanks!
