In August 2023, Roots in Guinea Bissau Cultural & Development Initiative 501c3, took bold action to combat the severe food scarcity crisis gripping Guinea Bissau. Through the collective generosity of our supporters, we successfully raised over $500, which was promptly utilized to procure essential food and supplies. This life-saving aid was then distributed to the remote Fula village of Sonaco on November 18th, 2023.

Witness the impact of your contributions in action through the attached news clip featuring Yama and Sufri actively engaging in the distribution of these crucial goods. Let's unite to sustain and extend this support, ensuring a brighter future for our extended family in Guinea Bissau. Join us in making a lasting difference in the lives of those facing adversity, and together, let's continue to foster positive change.
