Hi, my name is Mavy. My favorite food is fried chicken.
Message from Mavy:
I live with my grandmother since my parents separated sometime ago. My grandmother is happy to take care of me but she also has a family of her own and looking after me can also be difficult for her. Your sponsorship through World Vision will be very helpful in providing a better future for me, my family, and community . Thank you very much!
Mavy's World
Misamis Occidental is a province located in the region of Northern Mindanao in the Philippines. The primary source of livelihood in the community is fishing, followed by farming. In the 2000 Census of Population and Housing, it ranked third in terms of population size as the province is home to 17.7% of the 2.7 million people living in the region. The World Vision development project is located in Ozamis City and in the municipalities of Panaon, Clarin and Sinacaban where only 75% of the boys in the communities World Vision is working in are functionally literate. Moreover, school readiness rate is less than 60%.
I am extremely happy with this and I want to thank all of you for making this possible. Nothing makes me feel better than being able to make a difference, no matter how small. I also think this is just the beginning for us. We will be able to help more.
As I've explained, I have the money set aside to be able to support Mavy until he graduates from HS. After which, I will reach out and see if we can extend help in terms of employment and, if possible, partial scholarship in college, but definitely employment assistance (if we can).
Whenever I reach a certain income threshold, I will get one more child to sponsor. I will always make sure that the funds are enough to support the kid until HS. World Vision is a global non-profit but if you have other non-profit to suggest, I am open. I only ask that we all do a background check on the group and make sure the support they provide is also grassroots so as not to waste the assistance we provide.
I will keep you updated whenever they send me updates.
You can, of course, show his photo and video to family and friends but please blur his face if you are going to post on social media or any public outlet. I am sure you understand that he is a minor and we need to respect his privacy.
Sending you all love, peace, and hope.
