In February 2019, Ben is travelling with five of his fellow pupils to a school in Bombo, Uganda, where he will help run lessons for a week, as well as meet the children we sponsor and their families. Ben sponsors a young boy called Daniel and Natasha sponsors an older girl called Mirembe. Neither of these children would have access to an education (and, in some cases, their only daily meal) without such sponsorship programmes run by CRMI Children of Hope. We pay for their education and will also be meeting the full travel costs of the visit next year. However, we learned from parents who went last year that there is so much more help that is needed - tales of as many as ten children sleeping on sacks on a concrete floor, in one room huts with no roofs.
