A School Uniform Recipient Says “Thanks!”

Keima lives at 2c Upper Mellon Street in the Wellington community of Sierra Leone. She attends the Ashbury United Methodist Church primary school and she is in grade six. She is twelve years of age. When she grows up, Keima wants to be a doctor.

Keima’s mother is a practicing nurse and the main provider of the home with a monthly income of $50. This is not enough to cover the basic needs of the home. Keima’s father is a warden, but does not help care for the family. He lives 80 miles away from the rest of the family. Keima has a sister, two brothers, and two aunts living in a two bedroom apartment with no running water and no electricity.

She extends her thanks for the provision of a pair of shoes and two school uniforms. “Develop Africa has lightened the financial burden on my mother by this kindness they have shown to me,” Keima said.

Thank you, Craig, for your kindness!
