Libanos' Family

Libanos is a young single mother of twins seeking hope and a fresh start for her family.

After her parents divorced when she was just two years old, Libanos was raised by her grandparents alongside her older sister. She grew up without knowing her mother, who worked abroad. At 19, Libanos and her sister reconnected with their mom in an attempt to form a family unit. Unfortunately, she faced deep struggles, including abuse in their village and tension with her mother. Feeling hurt and alone, she left home with a man who promised support, only to be abandoned after becoming pregnant. Following the birth of her twins, Libanos moved frequently in search of stability, eventually returning to her grandparents' overcrowded two-bedroom home. As her children grew, she discovered that her daughter had developmental delays, which added to the discrimination and hardship she faced.

With help from Addis Guzo, an organization in Korah that supports children with special needs, Libanos connected with Hope for Korah (HFK). Together, we are committed to helping her and her children begin a new chapter filled with hope and purpose. They now live in a clean home near the HFK Daycare, where the children receive essential nutrition, social interaction, and speech and physiotherapy from trained staff.

Monthly sponsorship will provide Libanos’ family with holistic support such as food, housing, medical care, spiritual care, counselling, education, health and life skills training, and opportunities for income generation and business development. Being part of HFK’s Family Empowerment Program will also give this family an opportunity to participate in many of our daycare, youth, education, and community programs.
