Mabinty Kuyateh, a young blind girl aged between 12 and 13 years, is making an emotional appeal to the government and children’s organizations for urgent educational assistance and family support. Mabinty’s difficult situation highlights the challenges faced by children with disabilities in rural areas.
Born blind, Mabinty was abandoned by her father shortly after birth, as he could not accept her condition. The burden of raising a blind child also proved overwhelming for her mother, who later left her in the care of her grandmother in Magbaf Village, a small community near Mile 91. Since then, Mabinty has struggled with hunger and a lack of parental care.
Currently, Mabinty is not enrolled in school, further limiting her future prospects. Without access to education and basic necessities, she is trapped in a cycle of poverty. The lack of proper care, food, and resources compounds her vulnerability as she faces an uncertain future.
Mabinty’s plea is directed at the government, children’s organizations, and well-meaning individuals who can offer her the assistance she desperately needs. Education for children with disabilities, especially in underserved rural areas, is critical, and Mabinty is asking for a chance to learn and be supported.
Those willing to help can contact +23277861050 for more information on how to provide support for Mabinty’s education and welfare. Her story is a reminder of the challenges faced by vulnerable children across Sierra Leone, and her appeal calls for urgent action to change the trajectory of her life.
