Orphan Girls Need Sponsors

 

Two Orphan Girls in Myanmar
SPONSOR THEM

Nokhei (Esther) and her older sister Ngohniso are orphans in Yangon in Myanmar. Their mother died of cancer soon after Esther was born, and their father died two months later of cancer also.

They have been living with the older brother of their mother and their grandmother, Nei Si, but the uncle already has two children of his own. It is hard for so many people in one place. They are visiting around with friends who will take them for a week. The grandmother is willing to live in a separate home with the girls, but she cannot afford that. Nei Si needs sponsors to help with the day-to-day expenses of the girls. The girls are 9 and 6 years old.

They live in Yangoo where $40 a month would rent a house for the three, $35 would cover food for both girls and their grandmother monthly, and $25 a month would be sufficient for clothes and other items needed for their daily needs. That comes to $70 a month for each girl or $600 a year for each girl to live with their grandmother. We inquired about getting them into the care of a foster home, but there are so many covid orphans that there are no spaces there. It is better for them to be with family anyway.

Their grandmother Nei Si wants to take care of them but can't afford it on her own.
MYANMAR HAS MANY NEEDS
The teachers and medical personnel in Myanmar are on strike against the new military coup. During the Covid-19 epidemic there is no medical care easily available. The schools are closed because of covid and the strikes. Inflation has hit the country hard.

What chance do these two girls have without help?
