Meet Derrick

Derrick is 11 years old. His favorite color is green because green reminds him of nature. While he's not very talkative, he stays active and can be found playing soccer, helping with chores at home, or preparing for his future in engineering. 

We believe in Derrick's dream of becoming an engineer. One day his mentor, Eric, visited his family and found Derrick connecting electricity to their home. Yes, we're pretty sure he has a bright future ahead! He can also be found fixing radios and flashlights and making toy cars on any given day.

Through our education sponsorship outreach, we're able to build relationships with children and their families. This fills our team with so much joy and we are incredibly grateful for our partners who make our work possible.
