Campaign Story
Hi,
my name is Viktor and I am writing this text to raise money for my friend Gibril from Gambia (Africa).
Let me tell you about his situation in order for you to understand why I am writing this request:
Currently Gibril has no job and he is attending his final school year. He is eager to find a workplace as soon as he has finished his education. His parents died when he was still a child, so he has no one to finance his needs and barely no money to live by. Because of this, he is suffering from hunger and can only eat once in a while. Just occasionally he is able to find some hard work to finance his essential needs. Moreover, he is living together with his sick grandmother which is in need for medicational treatments
I supported Gibril together with another friend for the last couple of months. But as I am a student myself and don´t have enough money to take care of all his needs, like paying the rent every month or providing him with school material; I would ask you to help him with his tough situation.
It would be great if we could help him to get through his last school year, so that after he is finished he can earn his own money. For that purpose, I have created this donation website. If you donate an amount of 40€ or more, I will reward you with a 5€ amazon gift card. Consider this opportunity to help a humang being in need!
If you have any doubts, I will ask Gibril to send us receipts for what he is using the money you are sending him. From my personal experience I can say that he is trustworthy. As final words, consider these statements of the Bible:
1 John 3:17 "If anyone has material possessions and
sees a brother or sister in need but has no pity on them, how can the
love of God be in that person?"
Proverbs 28:27 "Those who give to the poor will lack
nothing, but those who close their eyes to them receive many curses."
Matthew 25 "And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left. Then
shall the King say unto them on his right hand: ‘Come, ye blessed of my
Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the
world.
For I was hungry and you gave Me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you took Me in’ ... Then He will say to those at the left hand: ’Depart from Me, you cursed, into the eternal fire, pepared for the devil and his angels. For I was hungry and you gave Me no food, I was thirsty and you gave me no drink ... as you did it not for one of the least of these, you did it not for Me."
