Atul, who grew up in a poor Christian family in Bangladesh, says he feels a connection to the <a href=\"\/refugees-news-stories\/rohingya-refugees-bangladesh-facts\">displaced Rohingya<\/a>. &ldquo;They remind me of me,&rdquo; he says. &ldquo;Our financial situation was not good. I had six sisters. I was the only son. My parents were not educated; they were illiterate. My father could only sign his name.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>One memory stands out. &ldquo;When I was studying in grade eight,&rdquo; he says, &ldquo;the most money I ever received was 10 taka. My mom said I could use it for anything I wanted.&rdquo; Atul kissed her. He was overjoyed even though 10 taka is just 12 cents. &ldquo;That memory helps me remember how poor I was,&rdquo; he says. &ldquo;As a child,&rdquo; he says, &ldquo;I could not even think about what would happen in the future.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Atul&rsquo;s life changed when he was <a href=\"\/our-work\/child-sponsorship\">sponsored through World Vision<\/a>. &ldquo;The sponsor who helped me came into my life as an angel of God,&rdquo; he says. &ldquo;From class three to now &mdash; my education, tuition, moral education, school fees, tuition &mdash; all came from World Vision. They really helped me grow.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Atul, like many of the <a href=\"\/refugees-news-stories\/rohinyga-refugees\">refugees living in Bangladesh<\/a> now, was surprised that someone would invest in him. &ldquo;The sponsor did not [meet] me,&rdquo; he says. &ldquo;He was just looking at my picture,&rdquo; he says. &ldquo;Based on that, they trusted me. Out of that trust, they sent generous support. That generosity and confidence in me changed my life.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>What Atul&rsquo;s sponsor poured into him, he now pours out. &ldquo;<a href=\"\/tags\/where-are-they-now\">Sponsored children become good people<\/a>,&rdquo; he says. &ldquo;It makes us good employees.&rdquo; And working for World Vision is different, he says. &ldquo;It is not just work. It is the call of God. God chose us to work with the vulnerable. It&rsquo;s a call we must answer.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Atul Mrong grew up poor in Bangladesh, but life changed when he was sponsored through World Vision.
