Sarah Campbell was born in Freetown, the capital city of Sierra Leone. She enjoys running errands and loves playing with her age group. She is healthy and active girl. Sarah has been living and attending school under very difficult circumstances, due to poverty. She resides in a small house with her parents and siblings. Her mother takes care of the family by doing household chores – cleaning, maid service etc. Her father works as casual dock laborer with a small income. What they earn is barely enough to cover basic needs and Sarah did not have a treated mosquito net.
Sarah has previously had fallen ill malaria several times through exposure to mosquito bites. She does not like getting sick with malaria. The family was planning to buy a net but because of scarcity of funds, was unable to do so. They were excited and jubilant to hear of the provision of this net.
The provision of this net made Sarah very happy as it will help ensure she never gets sick with malaria again. In the photos, you can see her holding the new net and also under the net in her bed – that she shares with one of her siblings. Thank you so much John, for providing this essential net!
