Tonu was born on December 6, 2007 in the district of Satkhira, Bangladesh.
Tonu is a pretty, 18 year old girl of high school age. She was born into a very poor, uneducated family. Tonu's father has a mental illness, and her mother works all day. So her mother put Tonu in school. She was trying to give Tonu an education.
But something tragic recently happened. A few trouble-making boys who are near the school began following Tonu every day as she walked through the dangerous neighborhood of the school. One day when Tonu was alone coming home from school, the boys dragged her into a garden and then raped her, leaving her in a hole in the ground.
Tonu is no longer attending the school in the dangerous neighborhood. With sponsorship, Tonu will attend a different school in a safer neighborhood. She is currently in her 9th year and the school year ends in December. She hopes to graduate in another year after 10th grade. Being sponsored will mean that Tonu will learn skills that help her into work that will provide for her and her mother. And her supervisor, Nipa will have the opportunity to share the love of Christ with her.
Your monthly or quarterly support will completely cover all recurring school fees, and will also provide for some required "extras" such as school supplies and uniforms. If you would prefer to provide a year's support in advance, you may select the "Yearly" option, which will auto-renew every year, or the "One Time" option for a single year.
