Bonjour I'm Essita

That's hello in French

Waiting for 13 months

I'm a 4 year-old girl and I live with my mother and father in Togo.

My birthday is the 31st December.

I love group games and playing house.

I' m too young to attend school, so I participate in Center Based Compassion programme activities.

£32 per month will empower her to overcome poverty
