Mveleli is the last born of 4 children. He lives with his mother, brother, sisters and cousin.

He is a very active child who is always singing and dancing with everything he does. He thoroughly enjoys school and when it comes to singing or poetry in the class, Mveleli's voice can be heard above everybody's.

He is generally strong and healthy but sometimes suffers with chest problems which we think is asthma.

His mother, Prettyrose is currently unemployed and so they rely only on the government child benefit of R200 (£13) a month per child.

Our sponsorship scheme is specifically designed to help children and families such as the Bangilizwe family. With your help we can ensure that Mveleli can stay at this school and get the opportunities in life he truly deserves.
