Born with a disability, 3-year-old Jared was neglected, starved, and abandoned by his father. But with the condition that Jared’s 7-year-old sister Rebekah serve as caretaker, the children were taken in by their grandparents. Although Rebekah loves her brother and does a good job taking care of him, she is unable to attend school and is forfeiting her opportunity to get an education for his sake. Follow our Cause 4 Life team as they discover that Jared and Rebekah's grandmother does not work and advocate for the children, working out a plan that would allow Rebekah the opportunity to go to school.

It really touches my heart that a 7yr old would have a heart this big. (And a child shall lead them.) May the grandmother and all adults come to know and accept this LOVE. By helping others we help ourselves.

Dear Joni, In my opinion formal education is very important.May Rebekah receive all the proper knowledge and diplomas that are needed to take care for herself and her family and to follow Jesus in this life.
