A thank you to our Friends
You can help us in our goal by making a donation or sponsoring one of our children. Our biggest hindrance has been funding. We need your support to help these children complete their education or skills training. It would also help us to reach out to the thousands of disadvantaged children/youth still on the streets. The easiest way to make a donation is by making a secure online donation using the 'Donate' button on this page.
For more information about Youth Alive please contact Agnes Chiravira, the director of Youth Alive, by email to Alagba54@rocketmail.com.
'Look to Yourself First' was written by Adugbire Benoni who is 12 years and is in primary 4 class at Akantome Primary School, Bolgatanga in the Upper East region of Ghana. Youth Alives helps Adugbire to attend a Primary School.
For all things look to yourself first you have all things and you will never thirst. Your land has many things great and good rich soil, minerals and other things, do net go to friends cap-in-hand honey and milk flow in your land don't say grass is green at their feet for grass is green at your feet, you have get all the richest gifts, others have not got half your gift so Rather, mother, brother and sister sell at that you have on my education the fowls, goats, sheep and even the cows, use all that you have on my education and I will make you great in future life is all about investment and there is no better a lay to invest than education so my dear father, mother and sister invest in my education thank you and may God bless and give you honey life to take care of my education.
