Children for Sponsorship arrow Yelkouni, Salfo



Yelkouni, Salfo

Sponsorship/mo: $25.00

Salfo was about 7 years old at the time of our visit.  He is not in school.  Salfo was living in the Ivory Coast with his parents; but his father got sick (most likely AIDS) and brought Salfo to be raised by his Aunt an Uncle when he was 3 months old.  Both parents are gone.  His Aunt and Uncle had 6 children.  Two of them have died, 3 are living elsewhere and 1 is still with them.  There is also a daughter-in-law and her baby living with them.

 

Salfo lives in a village called Tansogho.  There are 7 women and 3 men in the courtyard along with several children.  His Aunt and Uncle cultivate a field of millet together.  They have no animals.  His Aunt says she is not well but it was difficult to understand the problem.

 

Their courtyard is nice, but they live in a very small mud hut.  All were in good health.  With a sponsor, we may be able to get Salfo admitted to school.
