Donations:

We are believing and contending for

• a new pickup truck $35,000
• our third building to be finished $10,000
• new monthly donors to have 100% of our budget met

We declare the time of lack is OVER!

NEW SPONSORS NEEDED

The following non-resident children are still looking for a sponsor after losing theirs. Saloum needs a half-sponsor to support him with $30 or 20€ per month for his last year of school, while all the others need either a full (60$/40€ per month) or two half-sponsors. Please reply and let me know which child you'd like to sponsor. Thank you!

Saloum
Age 25
Second and last year of trade school

Saloum was one of the neighbors' kids. His violent father used to beat him up, and constantly threatened to kill his firstborn son. When he first kicked him out, his Muslim neighbors forced him to take back his son. The second time, Saloum sought refuge with us again and stayed. He is a very intelligent kid who loves to learn.

In January of 2009 Saloum moved out of our house and back in with his family. In August 2010 he returned to our household when we employed him as our day guard. In November he became our driver. He finished his 9 years of education at evening school and started a two-year program at trade school in 2014 that he'll complete in 2016.

Guédiouma
Age 18
7th grade

The parents of Saloum's little brother had never had the means to send their sons to school. Today Guédjouma goes to school.

Miché
Age 12
6th grade

Second son of our cook Rosalie and her husband Dami who don't have the means to send their children to school. Today Miché is happy to spend his days on our base, and attend school.

Third son of our cook Rosalie and her husband Dami who don't have the means to send their children to school. Today Patrice is happy to spend his days on our base, and attend kindergarten.
