Hi there! I'm an 8-year-old girl living in Leka Dulecha, a village in Ethiopia. I have a big happy family with three sisters and six brothers. We enjoy playing together and sometimes we play soccer - it's my favorite game! In school, I love English class the most because I get to learn new words and hear interesting stories. After school, I help my family by carrying water. Luckily, clean water is now easier to get because of the help we're receiving.

Living here comes with its own challenges though. We don't have much, and our school isn't the best condition. But, your support is helping us a lot! Now more families here are learning how to grow vegetables and raise animals for living. We're also working alongside FH workers to make our village a better place to grow up. So even though things can be tough, I’m hopeful for the future and grateful for the support. Thank you for helping me and my community!
