Dear Tim,

The gift of food for this hungry family!

Musa and his family live in the Wellington community of Sierra Leone, in a two bedroom house with no running water and no electricity.

Musa has five children and two grandchildren. He has retired from work at the Sanitary Department of the Ministry of Health. He was earning a salary of about $30, which was not enough to feed his family and send his children to school.

Musa’s family has known poverty for a very long time. His children are seen around with torn clothes, and a times they walk around with no slippers or shoes. The children sleep on savanna bed using a kerosene lamp at night.

Musa’s wife, Sento, is now the main provider of the home with monthly income of $20, which is not enough to cover the basic family needs. Kallie, Abdul Rahman, Marie, and William depend on good neighbors to pay their school fees and provide lunch for them.

Thank you, Tim, for feeding this hungry family as they work toward a better life for themselves.

Dear David,

Fatu will sleep safely now!

Fatu may be small, but she brings immeasurable joy to her mother, father, brother and sister.  Her family lives in a single bedroom apartment without running water or electricity.  Fatu’s father wants to do so much more for his family, but it is difficult to meet even basic needs on a monthly salary of only $70.

Your kind donation means Fatu can sleep safely, protected by a treated bed net.  Malaria is devastating, but especially for little ones, so what you have actually given is the gift of life.  Fatu’s parents extend their deepest and most heartfelt thanks to you, David, on behalf of their precious daughter.

Dear Jenny,

Showing off their new nets!

Abdulai, Aminata, Adama, Musu and Mabinty are all members of the same community.

Abdulai is one of 5 children, and wants to be a driver when he grows up.  Aminata is too young to attend school, but enjoys playing with her two brothers and sister.  Mabinty raised six children of her own, and is now helping to raise two of her four grandchildren – sisters Adama and Musu.

Although they are from different families, Abdulai, Aminata, Adama, Musu and Mabinty each face a daily struggle with poverty.  Your generous donation of treated mosquito nets means one less thing for them to worry about.  Jenny, you are the reason that five more people can sleep soundly – and safely!  They thank you and so do we.

Dear Jonathan,

Happy with her new net!

Rugiatu lives with her parents and five siblings in a 3-bedroom house with no running water or electricity.  Her father is the family’s main provider, but his monthly income of $100 is not enough to meet even the basic needs of this growing family.

Rugiatu plans to be a nurse when she grows up, so she understands how dangerous mosquitoes can be to her health.  Your gift will protect Rugiatu from contracting malaria, Jonathan, and she sends her deepest thanks to you!

Dear Glenn,

Showing off her new net!

Isatu, who dreams of becoming a medical doctor, has five brothers and three sisters.  The children and their parents live in a 4-bedroom house without running water or electricity.  Isatu’s father is employed as a driver, but he struggles to meet the needs of his large family on a monthly salary of $70.  The family often goes with basic necessities, so purchasing a treated mosquito net would not be possible.

Thank you for your generous gift, Glenn!  It means mosquito-free nights and a malaria-free life for Isatu.
