Thanks to your purchase we can sponsor Adan M., a 7 years old girl of the isolated rural community of Golbo, on the Ethiopian border of Kenya. The climate is dry and very hot and about 29,000 people live here. Most people are farmers, but many struggle to make a living due to drought and livestock disease. Lack of clean water helps to spread diseases and malaria is common. Access to health clinics and schools is severely limited. As a result, illiteracy levels are very high, particularly amongst women.
We are supporting Adan and the Golbo people via the child-focused charity organisation World Vision Australia. GAIA is part of a group of sponsors that allow World Vision to implement their programmes to promote community building activities and strengthening community health. Your purchases will support our sponsorship to Adan so she will not be required to work and she can go to school, get proper education and thrive.
