Benin

Recently, Rebecca returned from Benin where she handed out dresses!!  Benin is on the western Africa with a population of 9.05 million people.  Benin has a literacy rate of 34.7%, with a female literacy rate of 23.3%.  So only 23.3% of the total population of females above the age of 15 can read and write which falls far below average in Africa today.

Here are some beautiful pictures of little girls receiving their dresses...




Thank you for all you are doing Rebecca!!
