Doris lives with her mother, father, two brothers and a sister in a single bedroom apartment in the Wellington community in Freetown, Sierra Leone. Her father is a soldier and the main provider of the home with a monthly income $100; not enough to cover the basic family needs. Her mother is a house wife and cares for the home. Doris uses a locally made kerosene lamp to study at night and sleeps on a mat spread on the bare floor. She likes reading, music, and dancing and wants to be a nurse when she grows up.

Doris was delighted to receive the vitamin supplements you provided her, Lesley, as she knows this will provide a much needed nutrition boost. Thanks for this gift of health and bringing cheer to Doris’ life!

Marian is a five year-old girl who lives with her parents and sister in an unfinished building with no running water or electricity in Sierra Leone; Marian and her sister sleep on a mat spread on a bare floor.  Their father is a carpenter with a monthly income of $30 and their mother is a petty trader who earns the same meager wage. Together they still do not make enough to meet the basic needs of their family. Marian is in first grade at the Vicrays Community Primary School; she wants to be a doctor when she grows up and she uses a kerosene lamp to study at night.

Marian and her family extend thanks to you, Priyanka, for the year supply of vitamin supplements. It will help Marian maintain better nutrition during hard times and allow her to focus her energy on realizing her dreams!

Augustine lives with his father, mother, three brothers and three sisters in a three bedroom apartment with no running water or electricity. His father is a plumber and the main provider of their home, although his monthly income of $50 is not enough to cover the basic needs of his family.

Lamin lives with his father, mother, seven sisters, and three brothers in the Upper Mellon Street in the Wellington community of Sierra Leone. They reside in a two bedroom apartment with no running water or electricity. Lamin’s father is unemployed and his mother is a petty trader that sells fish. She is the main provider of the family even though her monthly income of $50 does not cover the basic needs of their home.

Lamin is a pupil of the Evangelical Mission primary school and he is in sixth grade. His favorite subject is science and he wants to be a banker when he grows up.

Lamin thanks you, Lucas, for the bed net you generously donated because he is now safe from malaria. Prior to your donation, Lamin complained of a rash covering part of his body, but he can now sleep better knowing he is protected.

Your generosity ensures that Memunatu, Kadijatu, and Yaraba can sleep soundly and safely! Memunatu is a third grader at the Ahmadiyya Muslim Primary School in Sierra Leone. Kadijatu is not going to school at present but was in fourth grade before she moved with her family. Yaraba is a pupil of the United Mission Community Primary School and is in third grade.
Memunatu, Kadijatu and Yaraba are eternally grateful for the bed nets that you donated. Priyanka, your kindness will allow them to feel secure from malaria and mosquito bites.

Mary, Ossanatu, and Solomon hail from a rural region of Sierra Leone. Mary is in the sixth grade at the Dominion Primary School.  Ossanatu is a member of the nursery class at the Gospel Assemblies of God Preparatory School. Solomon is not yet going to school; he lives in a two bedroom zinc sheet home with no running water or electricity.

Each of their families find it very difficul to obtain daily meals, especially Solomon and his family of six. These vitamin supplements will surely improve the nutritional status of each child and help them devote more energy to growth and schooling.

Laura, Expedia Matching, and Joe and Karen, these three children are grateful to you for your donation!
