Meet Reagan ❤️ We were very worried about Reagan when we saw him again at the beginning of the school this year. His mother had tried very hard to take good care of him, but he was still malnourished. Thanks to our great sponsors, we were able to give him medical treatment and even send him to a boarding school where he gets regular food and drink.
With your donation you also support him to continue to go through life healthy and motivated!
