Dear project supporters,
Have you ever thought about what it would be like to be a child in class and not have a pencil?
Not just for 1 day but for a whole year or several years?
In this video, Janet (Develop Africa donor) and Abu Stephen Conteh (Program Manager, Develop Africa Sierra Leone) share their unique perspectives on the importance and practical value of a pen/pencil.
Janet explains what it was like to not have a pencil while on a trip, many years ago, in Kenya.
Abu shares about what it was like to be in class as a child and have to share a pencil. Picture in your mind writing super fast!
Watch the insightful discussion between Janet and Abu
When kids don't have pencils, they are not able to take notes. They miss out on a lot.
No kid should have to be in that disadvantaged position.
We are so thankful that you are helping to provide pencils to kids in Africa.
Because of your ongoing support, children will have their own pencils.
Because of you, children will not have to share pencils.
Children will be able to take notes.
Thank you for making a difference!
Sylvester and the Develop Africa team
