AGRICE shelter for blind and disabled children in Guinea-Bissau
There is a unique remote guardianship program for the children from the shelter. By becoming a guardian of a special child, you will make his or her life much better and, most likely, you yourself will experience the happiness of knowing that your family has become bigger. Many of our parents tell us that they truly consider the children to be a part of their family.
Sponsoring a child will cost €120 per month. This is enough for the bare minimum: food, basic necessities and basic education which helps children with disabilities adjust to life. You can divide this amount by €60 for two people.

Amish Nkonda
The boy lives in a subdivision of the AGRICE shelter in the village of Gabo. This is where his home, friends and family are. His own parents have abandoned him.
The child was given to the shelter with broken and deformed limbs. The relatives who brought him said, "he was born like that - with broken bones." But a doctor from Holland, who later examined the boy, said this was not true. His legs and arms were broken on purpose. It's not possible to fall like that by accident.
Nkonda has muscle weakness. When he picks something up, he often drops it and can't hold it. He needs to train his muscles. In addition to the fact that the bones in both legs and one arm are severely deformed, they are also more fragile. Because of this, he is forbidden to run. Every four to six months, the boy has severe swelling in his joints. It is possible to alleviate his condition.
Nkonda is a very kind and caring boy. He always helps other children.

Ebi
When Ebi was two weeks old, one of the wives of the boy's father, who could not have children, poured poison into his eyes. Then an unknown local doctor then sewed up the eight-month-old child's eyes.
The young mom had to give him to a shelter.
The Foundation tried to restore Ebi's sight and took him to a hospital in Istanbul, Turkey. But it turned out that there was no chance that he would be able to see.
The boy is very affectionate and kind and loves to play the drum. Now he is studying at the shelter as a blind person.
