My Story

Hello! My name is Ramazan Hysa. I am 10 years old and my birthday is on July 27^th. I am doing well and enjoy good health. My favorite color is green and my future dream is to become police. I frequent the fifth grade at school and my favorite subject is Math. After school, I meet to play soccer with my friends. We play at the school sport field for a few hours before we return in the houses. My friends and I meet and play in the roads close to our homes too and we have a lot of other games besides soccer to play and have fun and good fellowship. I offer myself to help my mother when she cleans the house, does shopping and offer myself to do things that she is asking of me to do. I go to the shop when she asks me to buy bread or small items that she misses while she cooks.

 My family and I live in Katjel. Our home offers appropriated living conditions to us. I have in my family five persons. One of my sisters got married and my two other sisters are 17 and 12 years old. My sisters are also in the program and the three of us receive food packages every six weeks provided for us and our family. We go to the church and Bible classes constantly and we gain knowledge from the Bible studies that we frequent. We own land as family and my father has planted vegetables for sell in the market. He has build plastic tents for the vegetables to stay in good condition and grow (typical to greenhouses) My father has a small vehicle in which he can carry a few arks of vegetables so that he can transport and sell them in the market of the town. He sells tomatoes, onions, beans, etc. He is not profiting very much and for this reason, we are living with very low income. My mother works in the garden together with my father and she is also carrying for our two goats that we raise. We keep them to have milk to consume for ourselves and in a portion of land, my parents plat alfalfa which is basically used to feed them inside during the winter. My mother is besides working in the garden, doing all the cleaning, cooking, washes our clothes, and many other things that need to be done around the house. We are financially challenged and we as family are thankful to the program of Adopt a Child for the benefits. Thank you for your generosity and God bless you!
