Posting on behalf of Alie Bah-

Hello, my name is Alie Bah, I am an 18-year-old living in Brikama Town, The Gambia. I am writing on behalf of my family, with a humble heart, to ask for help during these very difficult times of our life.

I live with my younger siblings, and I am doing my best to care for them on my own. We are very poor, and every day is a struggle to find enough food, stay healthy, and rent to keep a roof over our heads.

I do not have an official job. The only work I can find is making bricks, which is very hard labor and pays very little. Even though I work as hard as I can, it is not enough to meet our basic needs. There are days when my siblings go hungry, and it breaks my heart to see them suffer when all I want is to give them a better life.

Despite these hardships, I have not given up. I am trying to stay strong and responsible for my family, even at a young age. I believe that with support, I can provide stability, proper meals, and a safer living situation for my siblings.

The funds raised will be used for:

• Food and basic nutrition

• Rent and shelter

• Medical needs and general health

• Essential daily living costs

Any amount, no matter how small, will make a real difference in our lives. If you are unable to donate, please consider sharing our story so it can reach someone who can help.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for taking the time to read our story and for any kindness you are able to show. May God bless you for your compassion and generosity.
