*UPDATE: Formerly Mestowet, Deborah decided to change her name: "My grandmother practiced witchcraft and chose my name Mestowet because of her beliefs. I love the story of Deborah (Debra) in the Bible, so when I took Jesus into my heart I changed my name".

YEAR OF BIRTH: 2001

ABOUT: Deborah loves to cook and makes amazing pasta! She hopes to become a chef. She is a great athlete and loves horror movies. She loves to help in the kitchen and gets mad if Tenagne makes her leave the kitchen to go play.

SIBLINGS: None

HISTORY: Deborah's mother was unable to care for her, so she was sent to live with her grandmother. She began working as a servant in another house at age six. When her grandmother died, her father was contacted to see if he could care for her. He is a good Christian pastor and farmer, but his new wife would not allow her to live with him. Her father contacted Tenagne in 2013 and she  has lived there full-time ever since.

$180 a month is required to provide for Deborah's basic needs, including food, school, medical and housing.

For $30 a month, you can be God's love to Deborah by enabling Shalom to meet her physical, mental and spiritual needs. If you are able to/would like to cover more than a sixth of Deboarh's monthly monetary needs ($60, $90, $120 or $150/month), you are more than welcome to do so!
