Meet our Knotty Boy Sponsored-Child Family!

Justino Choque Buendia - Santa Cruz, Bolivia

Justino is a handsome young man of 11 years (2007), and is currently in the 4th grade. He enjoys playing football, marbles and going to the river and his favorite subject is Math.

Justino comes from an alcoholic family in which he suffered physical abuse from both parents. After leaving home and living on the streets for a few years, during which time he became involved in drugs, he was invited to join a rehabilitation center for street children suffering from addictions and abuse (seen in the photo right). After some struggle, he accepted the offer of help and has been making great improvements since.

Knotty kids, you may think your $.50 is a drop in the bucket, but that drop combined with 600 other drops has sponsored Justino not only for a year’s worth of basic necessities, but literally for a second chance in this life. Allow yourself a face-splitting smile right now - we are!! Thank you thank you THANK YOU for helping this child and the other eleven in our little Knotty Boy sponsored-child family.
