My Story

Hello! My name is Rajan Allko. I am 4 years old and my birthday is on February 4^th. I am doing well and in good health. My favorite color is blue and my future dream is to become a police. I attend the kindergarten from morning till midday. I enjoy frequenting the kindergarten. We play there with toys, draw and color and hear stories from our teacher that are beautiful lessons to us. I have made many friends at the kindergarten as we play and share our toys. After lunch, I get together with my friends and cousins who live near my house and we play in the roads. I like to run around and play with ball. I also like to play hide and seek and many other simple games as these. Even that I am a small child. I try to help my mother when she does the house keeping or when she goes in the shop to buy groceries. When I am inside my house, I watch cartoons on the TV for a short while.

My family and I live in Kotodesh. I live with my father and mother and have a seven years old sister. She is going to school and she is also frequenting the sponsorship programme. We both go there together with our mother and enjoy frequenting the Bible classes and the other activities that the teachers there are organizing for us.  My mother and we frequent the church services on Saturdays. My father owns a car and he is working in the village as taxi driver. Doing this job he earns very less, because he is bringing the people in the closest town. My mother is also working in the vegetable garden that we have in front of our house. She will soon start to plant the seeds in the garden so that we can enjoy fresh products as tomatoes, peppers, onions, beans etc. Same as every other family who lives in the village of Kotodesh, we face financial hardships and I am very thankful to the Adopt a Child programme for all the support they are giving to me. I benefit a food package which contains groceries such as flour, rice, oil, pasta, sugar, etc. Thank you for your care to me and God bless you richly!
