Amara Receives a New Net and Now Safe from Mosquitoes!

Dear J. Smith

Amara lives with his mother, father, half brothers, and half sisters in a zinc house with running water, but no electricity. Amara has known poverty since he was born. His father was working, but is currently unemployed. His mother is a gardener and the main provider of the home. She also runs a small business on the side. Her two jobs make her a mere $50 a month–by no means enough to care for her children.

Amara attends the United Methodist Secondary School in the Wellington community. Amara wants to be an engineer when he grows up, and likes to play football. At night, Amara uses a locally made kerosine lamp to study, and finishes his day on a mat spread over the bare floor.

J. Smith, thank you so much for your donation. A mosquito net guarantees a better night sleep for Amara–without the worry of mosquitoes or malaria!
