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. — Alie Bah

Hey my name is Izek, and I’m raising funds for my dear brother in Christ, Ebrima, who lives in The Gambia. Ebrima is a humble and faith-filled young man who has been doing everything in his power to care for his family after the passing of their father. Since their father’s death, Ebrima has stepped into a role far greater than himself — doing all he can to provide food, shelter, and stability for his younger siblings. There have been many nights where hunger and uncertainty tested their faith, but through it all, Ebrima continues to look to God for strength. He tells me often, “I just don’t want to see them cry anymore from hunger pains anymore” Those words reflect the heart of a man who, despite his own pain, continues to give, love, and believe. Ebrima does his best to find small labor jobs, but work in his area is scarce. What little he earns often goes straight to daily survival — a meal here, rent there. He and his family cook their food over firewood, and even then, it’s often a stretch to make ends meet. His landlord continues to pressure him for rent, and the constant burden of trying to keep everyone fed weighs heavily on his heart. On top of these struggles, Ebrima has also been facing his own medical challenges, which make it even harder for him to work consistently. Yet in all of this, his spirit remains unshaken. He spends his quiet moments reading God’s Word, seeking to grow closer to Christ, and to be a shining example of faith and perseverance for his siblings. Ebrima’s story is one of faith through adversity — a testimony that even in the valley, God’s light still shines. He believes, as we do, that God can do the impossible — that miracles are still unfolding every day, and that the right people are being placed in our paths to help us move forward with peace, joy, and grace. Every contribution, no matter how small, helps bring hope back into their home. Your giving will go directly toward: • Food and clean water for Ebrima and his family • Rent and basic living expenses • Medical care and recovery support • A foundation for Ebrima to build sustainable income and stability Please consider donating and sharing this with others who are moved by compassion and faith. Together, let’s show Ebrima and his family that they are not forgotten — that love still moves mountains, and that God’s family truly extends beyond borders. “Now unto Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think…” — Ephesians 3:20
