10-Year-Old Michael Who Uses Worn Out Shoes to go to School Finally Meet his Helper.

Yesterday on the 23rd January 2023, a young boy by the name of Michael was encountered in search of a shoemaker to fix his shoe. Unfortunately, the shoe was beyond repair and Michael was desperate for a quick solution as it was the only shoe he had for school. This triggered a humanitarian passion in the heart of Mr. Eric Scientis Koroma who encountered him and decided to intervene.
