Ali's Big Christmas Gift

Ever since I came back from Africa people have been telling me to tell my stories. I didn't think I would have many stories but now that I'm back I have so many to tell, so that's why I started this blog.

When I got home I said to myself I can't change the world but I can do the best I can. So I decided to raise money and send 1 goat and 10 chickens through Y-Malawi and World Vision with the $200 dollars I was going to raise. Now that I am done I'm able to buy :
  • 2 goats
  • 1 sheep
  • 10 chickens
  • 1 cow
  • 20 fruit trees
The grand total for all of this is $1,000 dollars. I raised all the money, but also with allot of generous friends.

I called this project "Ali's Big Christmas Gift". Now that I am almost done I feel so good inside and have hope that one day families in Africa will have a better life just like me.
