Bright

Bright is 19 years old and in his second year of high school studying science. Bright’s father died when he was in third grade. Bright and his two siblings’ care is left to his unemployed, uneducated mother—a subsistence farmer. Bright is currently a day student and commutes to school daily. HopE Ghana would like to get him into boarding school to cut cost of commuting and to provide him with an environment that is conducive for studies. At the moment, Bright works weekends and after school by fetching water for a group of masons as his part in bringing in the necessary funds to complete his high school education. Won’t you help us help Bright? It would mean the world to him.
