Thankful for Food – Door of Hope

Dear Sterling and Melinda,

The Kargbo family expresses their thanks and appreciation to Develop Africa for
the timely donation of a bag of rice. This family lives in the Wellington community in a two bedroom sheet metal home with no running water and no electricity.

This family has known poverty for a very long time. The father is a mason and the main provider of the home with a monthly income of $50. This is not enough to cover the basic needs of a family of eight. The mother trades in small goods and supports her husband in taking care of the home with her monthly income of $30. Kabba, Nathaniel, and Abubakarr are going to school and are doing well in their academic work. Kabba is in class two in primary school. Nathaniel is in school too.
Abubakarr attends primary school and is in class four. He wants to be a mason when he grows up.

Isata and Naomi are going to school and are in class three and two. Bintu attends an institute to learn tailoring.

Sometimes these children go to school without lunch, so receiving a bag of rice has certainly brought joy and life to this family that has not been having regular meals. Thank you, Sterling and Melinda, for your gift!
