Help Abdoulie and his brothers change their Life for better.

Donation protected
Hello, my name is Abdoulie Faye, I’m from the Gambia found in the western part of Africa in a small village called Tujereng.
I live with my younger siblings age 8 and 6 currently.
I am 19 years old .

So sad to tell you about my parents who died when we were very young and it has lead me to be a drop out from school because no one can afford to pay my school fees .
Life get harder and harder everyday so I become the care taker of the family and I started going to the forest to cut some firewoods and sell them to earn a small living with my family and it’s so risky because it’s not safe and against the law of the country (deforestation). Anyone who is caught in that act is been sent to jail or prison.
Unfortunately no other job is available for me here...

Getting food is a problem to us now but we managed because God knows better and he is the provider .
Paing rent is also very very difficult.

I also need education for I and my siblings or if possible only my siblings because it’s the most powerful weapon that you can used to changed the world as said by Nelson Mandela and I strongly believe in it.

In short I need education because I want to change my life story and family background and help my brothers to live a better life than following my footsteps of going to the forest to cut firewood which is too risky.

If I complete my studies , I can be engaged in something better and earn good salaries where I will help my brothers to be in school to learn and become someone better tomorrow.

The money raised will be used for our food, proper housing and schooling too if possible. We need education to have a chance at a better future, school shouldn't be just a dream for us.

Therefore, the goal may also need to be increased over time depending on how things evolve. If we reach the right amount with your help we could consider to move to a bigger city where school and work is more available and our dream becomes finally a reality.

Yes, there are many people out there who need help, but our situation leaves us no choice but to count on your good hearts and donations and I can't thank you enough on behalf of my little brothers and myself.

Please be aware every single penny makes a big difference to us.
And even if you can't donate, you can be of great help to us by sharing the link to others as much as you can.
Please it could change our life forever.

Thank you so much for your help,
it is priceless.

Greetings from the Gambia
Abdoulie


From a fundraiser

My name is Martyna Michalowska, I'm an artist and live in France.
I've met Abdoulie and his little brothers by making a contribution a few weeks ago for their groceries. Their story moved me and I decided to create this fundraiser to help them reach better living. Now I truly hope with your help they will be able to secure the present and seek for a new place where the school and work is available.
The funds collected will be sent as soon as requested to Abdoulie via bank transfer.
Needless to say every contribution counts enormously.

Thank you for your kind hearts.
