Meet Peter Guot Deng, who topped his school at Beliek Primary School in South Sudan!

Peter Guot Deng, age 11, primary one from Beliek Primary School South Sudan becomes another successful beneficiary of Global Orphans Relief’s (GO!) school meals support in South Sudan.
Guot emerged as the best performer in the recently released exams in his school. Despite struggling in his dark days when he used to be a beggar on the street three years ago, he now becomes one of the neat and bright students in his school with a promising future.
With Christ Mission to the World as an implementing partner for this mission project, several success stories have been recorded since the project’s inception. At three village schools near Aweil, South Sudan, this partnership provides school meals to orphans or children without parental care.
Guot says he now believes that God changed his dark days into a promising future. He says he didn’t have hope for the future but now God provided that through GO!. This effort has helped to make him into who he is today and to have a happy in life again.
Like several other children without parental care, Guot dedicates his time to church services, prayers and helping other young ones do minor works in the school compound of their church.
Global Orphan Relief (GO!) in collaboration with Christ Mission to the World (CMW) establishes feeding centres at village schools to provide meals to orphan children and have inspired an education campaign promoting vulnerable children to attend school.
————————————-
We have served in South Sudan since 2016 and have provided an estimated 1.7 million meals impacting more than 3,200 children in South Sudan. The scale of this initiative has grown by over 7 times since our launch in 2016, and this growth is driven by the near-famine conditions and other socio-economic challenges in this country.
In cooperation with two partners, Kids for the Kingdom & Christ Mission to the World, there has been $130,000 invested in these three school sites since October 2020. This investment provided for clean water, kitchens, storerooms, and latrines, all which allows for cost-effective distribution of food aid in these communities.
