my new adopted daughter.
dusabemariya is ten years old and lives in Rwanda, in the community of Gisanga. she is in first grade and her favorite subject is reading. dusambemariya lives with her parents, and five sisters. dusambemariya's chore is carrying water.
carrying water take hours each day. they are to retrieve the water in jerry cans from shallow wells, consequently because of that they suffer from worms, hygience problems, missing school and the time to pursue other business. malaria is an epidemic in this area not only because of the unclean water, but also because of rampant malnutrition. the health center in Gisanga lacks the facilities to treat the children who have malaria and or anemia. at school there are no sanitary facilities, school desks, drinking water or even enough classrooms to accommodate all the children.
isn't she lovely?
if you guys think of me, please pray for dusabemariya.
she means a lot to me, and really needs someone on her behalf.
there is nothing better than to know you are blessing someone.
especially someone so precious!
