Abeni of the Congo — The Girl Who Carries Hope
Abeni of the Congo — The Girl Who Carries Hope
Age: 11 Region: African Continent
Abeni has a habit of noticing when someone is tired.
Not the kind of tired that comes from running.
The quieter kind.
The kind that settles into someone's shoulders after a difficult day.
She notices because she watches faces almost as carefully as other people watch the weather.
Whenever her family spends long days outdoors helping neighbors, Abeni becomes unofficially responsible for one very important job.
Water.
She remembers who has already had some.
Who forgot.
Who says they're "fine" even though they clearly aren't.
Someone is always surprised when she appears beside them holding out a bottle with a smile that says,
"I thought you might need this."
She's usually right...
Her Dream: To lead community projects that bring clean water, health, and hope to families.
Her Wonder: “What could happen if everyone noticed one another a little sooner?”
