A Painful Separation

Nine-year-old Saoudata has had to make a sacrifice that no little girl should.

She’s had to evacuate Sévaré without her mother and her 2-year-old brother. The only reason that they were left behind was because her mother, Habibatou, was short on bus fare by twelve dollars.

“She has to put her children first, that is what mothers do,” said her Aunt Zachery.

Saoudata and her siblings will be living with their Aunt Zachery and Uncle Ahmed.
