Sixteen-year-old Precious is now in the 7th grade! Thanks to the generous donation from Erin Hall, Precious has been re-enrolled into school for the 2021/2022 school year. Her favorite pastime is cooking for her family.. Cooking in the village requires a lot of “props”. You must fetch water from a well or a nearby running stream, containerize it in the outdoor kitchen, carefully wash whatever you are cooking and then proceed to “prepare” the materials for cooking (like chopping the greens, egg plants, yams, etc.). Then comes the seasoning and placing in the pot. Most Liberian meals are stews eaten with rice.

Meet Precious, who has been generously sponsored by Maucio Avila. She is a shy 13 years old and in the 4th grade this year. She lives in Sanniquellie, Liberia. Precious lost her father, who was the primary supporter of the family, about 5 years ago. Her mother who has 4 children became a widow at the age of 36. To support the family, Precious’ mom sells palm wine by walking along the streets from about 8am until 3 pm each day. Precious’ mom said that her petty business is worth about $25 USD per month. Precious hopes to be a doctor when she grows up.
