A simple gift changes a life

A few years ago Safura (above, right) was a 12-year-old girl, living in Savelugu, a rural community in Ghana, and walking 15 km to school each day. Often arriving late and exhausted, Safura’s school performance suffered and she debated dropping out. With your help we were able to intervene and provide Safura with a bicycle, making her journey to school less exhausting. Getting to school on time each day, she quickly rose to the top of her class and hopes to one day become a teacher to help other children in her community.
