Ayeligiga’s son rides and makes life easier for the whole family!

Picture 072
Dear Howard,

Ayeligiga lives in the village called Kandiga, in rural northern Ghana. Thanks to your donation, Ayeligiga received a bicycle and was taught how to take care of it.

Ayeligiga’s son is the primary user of the bicycle, and he uses it to get to their farm, to school and to the major market miles away. The family makes a local drink and sells it at the local market.  Ayeligiga’s son can ride quickly to their farm and the market, and still get back in time to get to school. Also, he is actually willing to make these errands for his mother, and she is delighted! Without the bike, they carried grain in baskets on their heads while walking, and hated to walk places in the hot sun. Owning a bike will save Aboiku and her family many hours of walking every week, and will help them be more productive and successful.

Ayeligiga is very thankful for your donation, Howard!  Thanks for your support of the Village Bicycle Project!
