A family receives essential nourishment

SALAM_KAMARA_FAMILY
Dear Katherine,

The Salam Kamara family lives in the Wellington community in a family house. Their home has electricity but no running water. They are thankful for the bag of rice they received.

The family was surprised to receive the bag of rice. Haja shouted for joy when she found out about it!

After his father’s death, the eldest son Abdul became the head of the home, and is the main provider. He works with a water company, but his monthly income of $70 is not enough to cover the family’s basic needs. He has four children and a wife who all reside in a single bedroom apartment. Standing next to him is his stepmother, Hawa. Hawa has four children, and occasionally trades. Dauda, Mohamed and Mariatu are Abdul’s children. Mohamed attends the Evangelical Primary School, and is in the fifth grade. He wants to be a businessman when he grows up! Marie is the mother of Abdul and Ibrahim.

Thank you, Katherine, for providing rice for the Salam Kamara family. This bag of rice will last the family for a full four months! Your generosity is greatly appreciated!
