For the first nine years of Boubacar's life, he was completely blind from severe cataracts most likely from malnutrition. Through the help of World Vision, Boubacar's sight was restored and today, he attends school. Fatoumata is especially grateful for the help of World Vision in her community and her son's sponsor. SUPPLIED Boubacar is sponsored through the World Vision Child Sponsorship program, he is seen here with his community facilitator Tamba. To help change the lives of children and entire communities, become a sponsor today at https://www.worldvision.org.nz/give-now/sponsor-a-child, or give to where it's needed the most visit https://www.worldvision.org.nz/give-now/where-needed-most/.
