Family from Gambia needs help to keep their home.

Donation protected
Hello to everyone who took time to read this story. Although I have fallen short of my goal to raise enough money so I could have Ousman purchase the house he was living in, I still wanted to thank those who supported Ousman and his family.  I continue to help him every month to buy groceries and try to keep him in any shelter he can find at this time., I met this young man some time ago and I have been helping him and his family. He asked me if I could post this for him. I will let him tell his story.We became friends on Friends and after asking about his life he told me his story. He didn't initially ask for money and it was me who offered him help. I would like to raise money so that I can set him up with a small business. He can earn a modest wage and be able to feed his young siblings and mother. His goal is to earn enough money so that he can put his siblings through school and eventually buy their own small plot of land to grow some basic food. He is in a desperate situation because the family have been evicted from their house they were renting. They are currently living on the street and haven't washed in days. Any donation big or small will be greatly appreciated by Ousman and his family. Ousmans ultimate goal is to return to school to finish his education so he can get a good job and support his family on his own. Thanks to everyone who has donated and those of you who have read his story. God Bless you and may God watch over my friend and his family. For anyone who visits this page know that I still do what I can for this family. Ousman the oldest son and I ate currently trying to set himself up in a business so he can take care of his family on his own. No amount to small. Any help is a huge support for them. Again I thank everyone who has donated and those that have taken the time to read his story.
