Help with Food
In May 2009 I visited for the first time the village of Bois Negresse and the school that Star of Hope supports there. We were there to do the routine check of the project and to distribute the extra gifts sponsors send to the children.
One of the recipients was six-year-old Denis. She was then in grade 1, she told me she likes school and her favorite subject is math. But she also likes to learn about other subjects as the local language Creole, French and social knowledge.
For the money that her sponsor sent she was very clear what she wanted to do.
- Now I will buy ants, exclaimed Denis in a big smile.
She was excitedly happy and wanted to use the money the same day. The family has no animals, but Denis loves ants. Denis said enthusiastically that she should have them in a plastic jar and feed them and take care of them as her pets.
When she grows up she wants to become a teacher. She thinks it's fun with the school and to teach things to other children would be fun.
