A new uniform and a new school for Ferreh

Ferreh’s family has just been transferred from the middle of the capital (Freetown) to Mellon Street in the Wellington community of Sierra Leone. Her mother has decided to find a new school for her in the neighborhood due to the transportation cost back to her old school. Ferreh wants to be a medical doctor when she grows up.

Ferreh’s mother is a housewife, and her father is a carpenter and the main provider of the home with a monthly income of $40. This is not enough to cover the basic family needs.  Ferreh has two sisters and two brothers and they live with their parents in a single bedroom apartment mud house with no running water and no electricity.

Ferreh and her mother extend their thanks for the provision of a pair of uniforms, a pair of shoes, and a pair of socks. It helps Ferreh feel more confident at her new school.
