Before GAM Aid came into the picture, I was facing a serious housing challenge that seemed impossible to overcome. I found myself squatting in a cramped room with some of my old secondary school classmates while attending university. Although I was deeply grateful for their kindness and willingness to share what little space they had, living under those circumstances left me feeling morally compromised and emotionally unsettled. Each day I struggled with a sense of shame and uncertainty, wondering how long I could continue in that situation without losing my dignity or my focus on my studies.
When GAM Aid extended their hand of friendship and support, everything changed. I was welcomed into a church family house where I finally had a place to call my own. Beyond simply providing a roof over my head, the team at GAM Aid ensured I received spiritual encouragement that renewed my hope, as well as monetary assistance that eased the weight of my everyday expenses. They also arranged a tutoring job for me, which not only covered my basic needs but helped me develop new skills—improving my teaching abilities, boosting my confidence, and equipping me with practical experience I will carry forward in life.
The impact of this comprehensive support has been nothing short of transformative. Through the guidance and care of GAM Aid, I experienced significant spiritual growth and learned invaluable life lessons about love, respect, kindness, and the beauty of communal living. My daytime work as a tutor fostered a sense of purpose and self-reliance, allowing me to provide for myself and take pressure off my parents, who were already doing their best with limited resources. In that nurturing environment, I discovered strengths I never knew I had and developed a deeper appreciation for service and generosity.
My heartfelt gratitude goes to GAM Aid for the profound difference they have made in my life. Thank you for offering me a safe, supportive living environment and for investing in my personal and spiritual well-being. Your kindness has deeply influenced my character, my relationships, and my vision for the future. May God continue to bless your good work abundantly as you change more lives just as you have changed mine.
