Meet Dadajiah

In Dadajiah’s own words.

My name is Dadjiah. My birthday is July 15, 2021. I live in the village of Vea, Ghana, where I attend school. I am also receiving tutoring support to build reading skills.

The Context

Dadajiah’s world.

Dadajiah 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.

Someone already walks with Dadajiah. Other children in the program are still waiting for a name to say yes.
