My first Sponsored Child 第一個助養的孩子

Here it is, I finally received the letter from World Vision Hong Kong http://www.worldvision.org.hk/en/

I opened the envelope carefully, there was a paper-made folder and inside the folder.....

It's a boy, my sponsored child is a boy, who lives in Dhaka East, Bangladesh.  He is 6 years old and hasn't been to school yet.
I have read some informations about Dhaka from Wiki...

Dhaka had a population of over 15 million in 2010, making it the largest city in Bangladesh(also is the capital of Bangladesh). It is the nineth largest city in the world and also among the most densely populated cities in the world.

Dhaka experiences a hot, wet and humid tropical climate. The city has a distinct monsoonal season, with an annual average temperature of 27.5 °C (81.5 °F) and monthly means varying between 19.5 °C (67 °F) in January and 32 °C (90 °F) in April.  Approximately 87% of the annual average rainfall of 2,121 millimeters (83.5 in) occurs between May and October.  That's why flood situation getting worse day by day.
 


Dhaka has the largest number of schools, colleges and universities of any Bangladeshi city. The education system is divided into 4 levels: Primary (from grades 1 to 5), Secondary (from grades 6 to 10), Higher Secondary (from grades 11 to 12) and tertiary.  Education is mainly offered in Bangla, but English is also commonly taught and used.

Cricket and football are the two most popular sports in Dhaka and across the nation.  Teams are fielded in intra-city and national competitions by a large number of schools, colleges and private entities. The Mohammedan Sporting Club and Abahani are two of the most famous football and cricket teams, maintaining a fierce rivalry.
