Introduction
Mperismer (pronounced merry-samer) is a typical 10 year old boy in the village of Bagri, northern Ghana.
His family are farmers who scarcely produce enough food to feed themselves. Without the ability to read or write, Mperismer is following his parents into an arduous life of subsistence farming, poverty and disease.
The Savannah Education Trust has been established to help provide an education for children in Mperismer's village through the construction of an infant and primary school.
Bagri Baptist School is too late for Mperismer. But we hope that, with your help, his generation will be the last to face a bleak future without education.
