Little Sire Yacine is a healthy and joyful baby girl. She is now trying to sit. She only cries when she is hungry. She smiles when she is with her mother. She lives with her parents and siblings in a house made of clay. They fetch water from a well. At night, they use a solar lamp. There is no electric supply in this remote village. Agriculture is the main occupation of the inhabitants. Her father is a scrap merchant. But during the rainy season, he grows millet, maize and peanuts. The mother is aa housewife. The irregular annual income of the family is US $890.00 and is not enough to cover the family needs. An extra support from a sponsor can help this child grow up in better conditions.
