School for two in the Gambia

Funds raised each year find two children school for a year in the Gambia



Geedema Sweetwater Charity Project
 
We sponsor two children to attend school in the Gambia each year via the Geedema Sweetwater Charity Project. The  boy is called Amadou Bah and  a girl is Aminatta Jatta.


In resent years there has been trouble in Gambia and personal contact has been difficult but the good work continues by contact with the nursery school
This year we received a letter and photographs from Geedema Sweetwater Charity Project showing our £40 was received.

We happily sponsored them.
