A Brighter Tomorrow for Africa - BTA - continues to provide nourishment to children throughout Sierra Leone through school feeding programs.
Thanks to you support, this nourishment has led to great educational success for many, many of our kids. Two examples:
Student One:
He attended our Children of the Nation’s School in 2007 at nine years old. We are happy to report he has now graduated as the head boy of both his Junior and Senior school 10 years later at age 19. Solomon wrote to us that BTA was the main reason he had the energy to walk back the two miles from school every day, since he attended with an empty stomach most times. Solomon says he craves BTA meals at home and is so thankful he was able to enjoy lunch every day.
“I hope and pray that the B.T.A. will not cease, but will always be served to all the pupils.”
Student Two:
She also attends our Children of the Nation School. She is a junior in the secondary school and has enjoyed BTA meals for nine years. Alimatu wrote to us about how grateful she is for our support. She tells us she only has to show her spoon and plate and one of the volunteers will server her an entire meal. Most of the time she comes to school with no money to buy her dinner on her way home from school, but because of B.T.A., she usually tells her mama she already ate enough. We are very excited to see Alimatu graduate this year!
“I really love the B.T.A.; I hope and pray it will not cease to be served; especially, for kids like us who most times come to school with an empty stomach without any lunch from our parents.”
Thank you again and again for your continued support!
