Dear Miten and Tracy,

You Zioklui is a 19 year old student in Atiave, Ghana. Most people in this town are farmers, and You spent his youth working on his parents’ farm instead of going to school. Thanks to your donation, Miten and Tracy, You received a bicycle from Village Bicycle Project and learned how to care for it.

You will use his bicycle to travel the five kilometers from home to the school.  The bike allows him to help with family chores and still get to school on time. You is glad he is catching up on his schooling, and though much older than his classmates, he likes that the bike gives him special status. He will also use his bike to go on errands to the local junction town of Abor. Owning a bike saves time and energy for You, and makes life a lot more productive!

You is very thankful for your donation, Miten and Tracy! Thanks for your support of the Village Bicycle Project!
