Pleas for Support

from Hope Mission Ebola Orphans:
We lost six members of our family to Ebola, including a sister on
the WPC scholarship. We also got sick. Please come to our aid.
-- Jameal F., 2nd grade, 12 yrs; Mary F., 8th grade, 21 yrs

Our mother died of Ebola. Neighbors feared being contaminated.

We can hardly get food to eat and do not know where are
next school fees & tuition will come from.
-- Climate, Kg II, 10 yrs; Serena, Kg II, 7 yrs; Stella, 3rd grade, 17 yrs

We used to live with our mother in another community.

Then she died. We are currently living with our Great Aunty.
We are begging WPC to help us continue our education.
-- Blessing S., Kg II, 13 yrs; Joseph L., 6th grade, 14 yrs
