Meet Blessing, who has been generously sponsored by Karyn Behn. She is 10 years old and is in the 2nd grade this year.  Blessing lives in Sanniquellie, Liberia with her grandmother who is unemployed but goes from various homes asking to wash their clothes for her and Lydia to buy food.  After the death of Blessing’s father four years ago, her mother had given Blessing to her father’s mother as she could not afford to support all three of her children.  Her interests are washing clothes and she hopes to be a business woman when she grows up.
