Stronger than she looks
When Chase a Better Tomorrow first met Daniella, she was just 2 years old. She was malnourished and living with a rare, undiagnosed condition that affected her health and physical appearance. Her family did not have the means to provide consistent nutrition or access the medical care she needed.
Chase stepped in to support her with regular food, milk, and access to medical care, helping stabilize her condition over time. With consistent care and attention, Daniella slowly began to grow stronger.
Today, at 8 years old, Daniella is stable, attends school, and is part of the Peacock Project, where she continues to receive emotional and social support.
Her journey is a reminder that when children are supported early and consistently, even the most vulnerable can begin to thrive.

“I’ve met guardian angels.”
In her 70s, this resilient grandmother carries a lifetime of loss, including losing four sons during the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi, and later loosing one of her 2 remaining daughters to domestic violence.
After her daughter passed away from gender based violence in 2023, she became the sole caregiver of her five grandchildren without any income source.
Through Chase a Better Tomorrow, she now receives consistent support for food, medical care, and school fees. for her 5 grandchildren. Today, she is slowly rebuilding hope and no longer feels alone in carrying her family’s future.
She used to portray herself as the unluckiest person on earth, but now she can smile and say, "I’ve met guardian angels."
