Meet Isima

My Story


Isima’s father died of HIV/AIDS in 1994, and he was left to live with his mother, who struggled to earn enough money to feed him and his brothers. They barely ate one meal a day and did not have money for school fees.


Isima’s mother died when in 2002, and he went to live with his aunt. His aunt eventually brought him to New Hope, where he is able to get money for school fees. Isima wants to finish his studies and become a lawyer to help less fortunate children . 


New Hope helps provide Isima with school fees and meals. With your help we can continue to help provide for Isima’s needs and greatly improve his quality of life.  To sponsor Isima, please click the “subscribe” button below.
