A satisfied little girl

OSSIANATU MARGRET DUMBUYA
Dear UBS,

Thank you for supporting Door of Hope. Donations like yours helped purchase a mosquito bed net for Ossianatu, who is four years old.

Ossianatu is in nursery one at the Gospel Assemblies of God Preparatory School in Freetown, Sierra Leone. Her father is a petty trader that sells second hand shoes and is the main provider of the home even though he only earns $40 a month. This is not enough to cover the basic needs of a family of five.

Ossianatu and her family live in a single bedroom apartment with no running water or electricity. She expresses her gratitude to you, Friedman Group at UBS, for the provision of a bed net. Her wishes of having a treated bed net have been satisfied and her fears of catching malaria have disappeared.

Self Reliance

MASERAY KARGBO 1
Dear UBS,

Maseray lives on Upper Mellon Street in Wellington, a neighborhood in Freetown, Sierra Leone. She lives in a three bedroom home with 16 other residents. They do not have any running water but are fortunate to have electricity. She sometimes assists her mother selling water and ginger nearby to make ends meet.

Maseray’s family had given up on her but she now has a lifeline; she has been training as a seamstress and now knows her dream to be self-reliant will be realized. She has been waiting for this opportunity for a very long time, Friedman Group at UBS. Thank you for the donation of a tailoring start-up kit to someone like Maseray through Door of Hope.

Dear Lesley,

Thank you for supporting Door of Hope. Donations like yours helped purchase a set of mosquito nets for Fatmata, Musu and Baindu.

Fatmata’s husband is a mason and the main provider of their home with a monthly income of $60. Baindu’s husband is a teacher and he also earns $60 per month. None of the three families earn enough every month to make ends meet.

These women were greatly moved by tthe set of mosquito nets they received because tey have children that they breastfeed. They are confident that their children will now be safe from malaria and for that they extend their thanks.

Three children are safe at night

AMOS-ADAMA-AND-KADIATU
Dear Hardeep and Ehtasham,

Thank you for your support of Door of Hope! Amos, Adama and Kadiatu received bed nets because of the generosity of people like you. Amos is in second grade at the Evangelical Mission Primary School in Freetown, Sierra Leone. His father is a teacher and the main provider of their home with a monthly income of $40, which is not enough to cover the basic needs of a family of four.

Adama is a pupil of the Orphanage Primary School and also in second grade. Her mother is a petty trader and the main provider of Adama’s household with a monthly income of $30. Once again, they cannot afford basic services like Amos’ family.

Kadiatu is a pupil of the United Mission Community Primary School and she is in class five. Her father is a petty trader and struggles to make ends meet for Kadiatu and himself.

Amos, Adama and Kadiatu are now safe from malaria because of the three bed nets — they express their thanks and appreciation to you, Hardeep and Ehtasham, for your donation.
