Habib's story of hope and hard work
Grateful for being sponsored as a child, Habib (left) is teaching his young sister to read.
Growing up, Habib felt the pain of poverty. Gnawing hunger, tattered clothes, and the constant worry of how his family would survive.
His father worked tirelessly as a skilled mason but could barely provide for his family of five. Three meals a day? A luxury. Dreams of a better future felt like distant stars in the night sky.
His sponsor’s love builds hope.
Everything changed in 2012 when Faizal, a faithful and caring person like you, decided to become Habib’s sponsor.
Faizal’s generous sponsorship equipped Habib with school supplies, educational support and ongoing encouragement.
It helped Habib dare to dream that his future could be different. That he could break free from poverty.
A new high school to help kids get ahead.
In 2014, Faizal and other kind sponsors like you helped build a new high school in Habib’s village, replacing the crumbling structure that once made learning a daily challenge.
When Habib enrolled, he saw it as a gateway to a better future. With Faizal cheering him on, he was determined to reach for his dreams.
New opportunities for Habib’s family.
At the same time, thanks to support from Habib’s sponsor Faizal and others like you, his parents were able to join World Vision’s programme that helps extremely poor families find a pathway out of poverty. They received training, vegetable seeds and a cow to help them grow food and start to earn more stable income.
That empowered Habib’s family to work hard, see their garden flourish, and celebrate when the cow gave birth to two calves. Small but significant steps toward a brighter future.
Within two years, the family sold the calves and used the earnings to lease a small plot of land of their own.
For a family that had once been landless, this was a monumental milestone.
They now had a way to grow rice and earn more income.
New skills as an electrician fire up Habib’s future.
Sponsorship helped Habib to do an electrical wiring course. Soon, he was taking on small electrical jobs in his village and helping to provide for his family.
Thanks to sponsors like Faizal and you, Habib joined an electrical wiring course and began taking on small projects in the village, earning income to help support his family.
With every small success, his confidence and hope for the future grew.
Habib has now graduated from high school and is on his way to university!
His dream? To help others like his sponsor helped him.
Habib dreams of becoming an honest and successful businessman so he can help his family and lift up others in his community.
He wants to create opportunities for others because his generous sponsor Faizal opened doors of opportunity for him.
Today, Habib’s family is no longer defined by poverty. They have land, food and together, they’re building a brighter future.
His younger siblings are thriving. Just like Habib, they’re reaching for their dreams.
Habib is living proof of the life-changing difference your sponsorship makes. Thank you!
