What do you do when you meet children who lost their parents when Ebola devastated their family and country?
You give. You give love, you give food, you give a cuddle.
When you feel deep in your heart you are at the right place at the right time. And meet the African Beauties living in the slum. And you do not realise you are in the most dirty smelly piece of land on Earth, where kids live, because those kids are so happy to get some FOOD and you are SO HAPPY to give...
Happy Valentine World... I could not have wish a better place to celebrate LOVE with the children who lost their parents and family from the mud slide in Sierra Leone. They were so happy to receive a plate of yummy food... Thank you, I am Happy, mission accomplished... We have brought food and water to over a thousand children...
Sierra Leone, Africa, April 2017
My dream has become!!! I fed even more than thousand children in 5 days, orphaned who lost their parents from Ebola living in the slums.
We had local women to cook for the kids, we bought 150 kilo of rice, vegetable, bread, water etc... to make sure we had enough to distribute up over 300 plates of food. The children call me "auntie", "please auntie" as they are holding their hands to receive food. To see the kids sitting next to me with their full mouth and tummy filling up was so touching... I wanted to touch as many children's hearts as I could...
The look in their eyes is still with me. What an experience, so much beauty and sadness too...
