Meet Eric
In Eric’s own words.
My name is Eric. I live in vea, Ghana, where I go to school. I like to play sports and others say that I am very athletic. When I grow up, I want to be a soldier man.
“Eric is a fast learner and is always ready to learn more things.”
The Context
Eric’s world.
Eric lives in Vea, a farming village in Ghana’s Upper East Region — one of the poorest areas in West Africa. He 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.
Sponsor Eric.
Your sponsorship of $40 per month helps provide Eric with access to education, nutritious food, clean water, and medical support — and invests in the entire Vea community that surrounds him.
