Meet Reubin

In Reubin’s own words.

Lives in Vea, Ghana with his family.

The Context

Reubin’s world.

Reubin 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.

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