Meet Bevelyn

In Bevelyn’s own words.

Hello, My name is Bevelyn. My birthday is October 16, 2017. I live in the village of Vea, Ghana, where I attend school.

Bevelyn is the first of three children. She loves music and teaches her younger siblings how to sing and dance.

The Context

Bevelyn’s world.

Bevelyn lives in Vea, a farming village in Ghana’s Upper East Region — one of the poorest areas in West Africa. She attends school here, walking along unpaved roads through the savanna each morning.

In Vea, families depend on a single rainy season — just three months — to grow an entire year’s food. Only 9% of people in the district live within walking distance of clean water. The groundwater itself is contaminated with fluoride levels above WHO safety limits.
