Timothy Dereva was a destitute child in desperate need of care, protection, and shelter. His early years were marked by severe neglect, leaving him vulnerable and without the support every child deserves.
Timothy’s growth was slow and retarded caused not by illness, but by insufficient meals and lack of proper care from his parents. Malnutrition and neglect took a heavy toll on his health and development, leaving him fragile and behind his peers.
Concerned about his condition, well-wishers stepped in to seek assistance. They knew that without urgent intervention, Timothy’s future would be in serious jeopardy.
That search for help led him to Shiphrah Centre, where he finally found what he had long been missing: nutritious food, medical care, shelter, and the warmth of a community committed to his well-being.
At Shiphrah, Timothy began the journey of recovery. With consistent meals, close monitoring, and emotional support, he slowly started to regain his strength and health. Though his growth had been delayed, he was given the chance to thrive in an environment of love and stability.
Today, Timothy’s life is a testimony of the power of compassion. Where neglect once defined his story, care and kindness have given him the opportunity to heal and hope for a brighter tomorrow.
