Introduction:
“Life has meaning when someone touches it at tender age. Someone stood out and shaped my life. I believe in life of fullness. Thank you my sponsor where ever you are.”
Education's purpose is to replace an empty mind with an open one. Having a sustained creditable charity supporting young people is worth recommendation.
Really do not know what I would be looking like if Compassion had not touched my life when I was at the age of seventeen – sick, starved, almost naked and frustrated with no hope. Thanks God.
God has been on my side since I was a child up to today. I really extend my sincere gratitude to my loved Helping Charity who stood by my side up to now, and I do promise that I will never disappoint them or God, who has been witnessing my daily life. Thank you dear Helping Charity.
Presently, I am at MDI now the School of Business and Public Administration, University of the Gambia pursuing a first degree in Social Communication and Development. It’s through your hands I grew up to become an adult with a mission to change my family, my community, my country and the world at large. Dear Helping, what can I give you and what can I say if it had not been your incomparable love you extended to me and my family. I believe in the next day, that I always count as a day of grace and new hope.
I do love you and wish you to see God’s grace day by day. My prayers rest in the hands of God. God of mercy bless Helping and Compassion. By God’s love I am who I am because of what you did for my life, where my parents were unable to support me in all the aspects of life.
I cried in my neighborhood, but no one listened to me. I called to my neighbors because of hunger, but there was no boon coming to me. I was sick in my bed, but no one could render a service. But not far from God’s hands, the Charity, who I called a parent, came to me from the far country that is beyond the sea where my eyes could not imagine a thought. What a blessing and love. I believed in this saying that “Tell everyone what you want to do and someone will want to help you do it”.
Helping stretched out both their arms to bring me back to the foundation of hope where I stand right now – with all the courage to make a difference which is positive for my life, my family and my community.
You became the spiritual, economic and intellectual garb I wear now. You became a friend where many people were not able to welcome me.
I really want to assure you that what you did in my life has touched thousands of lives through me; for now I am grown up and am making a positive difference in my family, community.
To those that really want to change the life of a Gambia Child, please contact the Helping Charity. Be assured from me that all gave comes to the Gambia. The purpose is for want it is meant for. By doing so, you are making an impact in shaping the life of innocent girl.
