Sarjo’s Market Shop
Donation protected
Sarjo has a hard time in The Gambia. The work availability there is scarce. He is planning to start his own business. His first idea was a chicken farm, which he accomplished, but it wasn’t as profitable as planned. He is now hoping to start a market shop, something that is very profitable in his area. He needs help with the initial investment costs for a stand and products.
All donations will go towards his start up fees, as well as helping feed his family while he’s working on organizing this business.
Please follow him on Instagram for his personal updates and/or follow the organization that is helping him which is @thesharingiscaringcollective
2021 Edit: Sarjo has tried to start his business but has quite a challenging time with the slowed global economy
His local economy has been effected.
At this moment in time he has to postpone his business plan until the economy returns to a relative normal.
With that said, any donation will help provide food (rice and vegetables) for his family as they are in dire need.
Please find the kindness in your heart to give $5, $10, or $15, more is very generous and appreciated.
Anything helps!!

“Hello. My name is Sarjo Baldeh. I live in Brikama Town, The Gambia, Africa. I am 18 years old and responsible for the finances of my whole family. My father sadly passed away so it is my job now to make the money. I do manpower jobs but the work is unreliable. I have an idea to start a business. Thankfully before my father passed I was going to school so I learned about business.
I have the idea to start a chicken farm. This will provide food and stability for my family as well as my community.
Please if you can donate any funds it will help us a lot.
