Joel Justin Meshack

Little Joel’s mom died at his birth.  He was born Sept 20th 2015 and was only 1.8 kg.  He has done well at Neema and is getting big now.

Hopefully he will be able to return home as soon as his dad has remarried and someone is in the home to care for him.

You can help us care for him by becoming his sponsor.  Sponsorships start at $30 per month but it takes over $300 per month to keep a baby at Neema House Arusha.

Orphans are easier to ignore before you know their names. They are easier to ignore before you see their faces. It is easier to pretend they’re not real before you hold them in your arms. But once you do, everything changes.
