AKIE: S616-GBE

Thanks to the generous donation from Lori Fischer Hall, Ackie has been re-enrolled into school for the 2021/2022 school year. She was promoted to the K-1 grade this year and still wants to be a singer when she grows up. She continues to live with her mother.

Meet Akie, who has been generously sponsored by Lori Fischer Hall.  She is 10 years old and is going to school for the first time in ABC grade. She lives in Gbayden, Liberia with her mother. Akie’s father abandoned the family when he met a new lady about 3 years ago. Since he left, they have not heard from him.  Her mother is unemployed and could not afford to send Akie and her 2 siblings to school.  Her interests are singing, and she hopes to be a singer when she grows up.
