Pikin Packs
Pikin (pee-keen) is Krio for child. In December 2023, MIGC will be heading to West Africa to host a community event in the seat of Sierra Leone. We are providing much-needed school supplies and/or food supplies to children ages 0-18. The continuously rising costs of living, high unemployment rates, and lack of private-sector businesses cause additional stress for families. Education is paramount for potential future opportunities for the children of Sierra Leone. Ages 0-5 are the most vulnerable, and we still need formula, pampers, and essential infant items. lot of parents cannot afford school supplies for their children and we want to give every child their best foot forward to creating a brighter future.....and, we need your help!
