Mabinty is a beautiful agile girl who lives with her parents and one brother in a village surrounded by swamps and many trees in the Northern part of Sierra Leone. The family dwells in a mud house roofed with old zincs. Mabinty and her family sleep on a local stick bed and on a dried grass mattress with old clothes for covering. They sleep under mosquito bed net. The parents are farmers growing rice, pepper and groundnuts for food at home and sells some to augment their family needs. The Father also serve as an unpaid community teacher. The annual income of the family is less than US$350.00 which is not enough to take care of the basic needs of the family. They share one meal a day. Mabinty is always simply dressed and doing fine at present. With the help of sponsorship, Mabinty and family will live better lives.
