Binty lives with her mother, grandfather, and the family of her grandfather in a two bedroom zinc sheet house with no running water and no electricity in the Wellington community. Her grandfather is a soldier and the main provider – his income of $100 is not enough to meet the basic family needs.
Both her parents are school students. Her mother had to drop out when she got pregnant, but she is back in school again. Since her parents cannot afford to buy her imported baby food, she does not have the balanced diet that a child should have.

You gifts of essential vitamins, Katie, Doug, and Amanda, will ensure that Binty’s basic nutritional needs are taken care of for a year. Thank you!

Augustine, Kamanda and Shika live at the Upper Beccle Street in the Wellington community.  All three of them are high school students at the Evangelical Model High School, and live in a single bedroom apartment with electricity, but without running water.

Your donations, Haris, Susan and Linda, have enabled us to provide mosquito nets for Augustine, Kamanda and Shika. They can now sleep peacefully at night without worrying about getting malaria. Thank you!

Adama lives with her mother, father, two sisters, and two brothers in a two bedroom block house with no running water, poor toilet facilities, but with electricity.

Adama has known poverty for a long time now. She belongs to a polygamous family and is denied the  love and care a child should take for granted. Her mother is a petty trader who earns $80 a month which barely covers the family’s needs.
Adama attends the Ahmadiyya Muslim Primary School in the Wellington Community. She wants to be a seamtress when she grows up. Adama sometimes assists her mother in selling assorted items in the market. Adama likes movies, especially village films.
Thank you, Renuka. Your gift of a mosquito net will ensure that when Adama sleeps at night, she is protected from mosquito bites.

Abass lives in a congested compound in  Upper Mellon Street in the Wellington community. He lives with his mother, father, a brother, and two sisters in a two bedroom
apartment with no running water, no electricity, and very poor toilet facility.
His father is a mason and earns rougly $70 a month, which is barely enough to meet the family needs. His mother supplements the family income with the money she earns by selling the vegetables she grows.

Abass works hard, both in school and at home.  He wants to be an engineer when he grows up.

Thanks to your gift, Joel, Abass will be protected from malaria when he goes to sleep at night.

Kai is 14 years old and attends the Faith Daniel Mission School in the Wellington community. She lives with her mother and three sisters in a family house at lower Philip Street in the Wellington community. Her mother is a petty trader, and earns $60 a month which is barely enough to cover the essential needs of the family. Her father does not live with his family, and doesn’t contribute to their upkeep.
Kai runs light errands for people in her community to earn a little extra income.
Thanks to your generous donation, Joel,  Kai can now sleep safely at night, without the threat of malaria!

Fudia, Peter, Fatmata, Salay, and Fatu live in the Wellington community.

Thank you, Joel, for your gift of five mosquito nets. These five members of the Wellington community are now protected from malaria!

Ibrahim lives with his father, mother, and four sisters in a two bedroom house which has no running water but has electricity. Ibrahim’s father is a driver, and his income of $ 60 is insufficient to meet the requirements of the family. His mother is a manucurist and supplements her husband’s income. Every morning,  Ibrahim’s parents leave home very early and return very late.

Ibrahim attends the Grace Christians in Action Church in the Wellington community. Since there is rarely enough money for transportation, he often walks four miles to and from school everyday. His favourite subjects are physical health education and Mathematics. He wants to be a banker when he grows up.

Your donation, Cori, Dante, Mark and Sarah, will ensure that Ibrahim has enough nutritional supplements to last him a full year. Thank you!

Thank you, Joel, for protecting Mariatu, Isaia, Seray, Zainab, and Fudia from malaria!

Lilian, a healthy, promising eleven year old, lives with her parents and four siblings in a small shelter without electricity and running water.  Her father, Moses, works as a prison officer, and his monthly income of about $ 50 is not enough to meet the needs of the family.  Lilian’s mother, Saffie, is a house wife, who earns about $ 25 per month by selling small grocery items.  Lilian’s family lives in deplorable conditions- they wear old clothes, and are often forced to go hungry.

Lilian attends the United Methodist School, where she excels in mathematics class.  She loves to read and would like to be a teacher or a bank manager when she grows up.

Your donation of a month of tuition, Akiko, Bill and Colleen, Sophie (x3), Madeleine, Julie, Joel, Joseph, Kyley, Karen and Nadia, has enabled Lilian to continue attending school for a full year. This brings stability and hope to her.

Thank you, Akiko, Bill and Colleen, Sophie, Madeleine, Julie, Joel, Joseph, Kyley, Karen and Nadia!
