"Living on a Dollar a Day: The Lives and Faces of the World's Poor"
In order to survive, Kayayo girls live in communal settings that require the least amount of rent, often near or on top of the city dump. Many Kayayo girls known as porters who carry very heavy loads on their heads work with babies strapped to their backs to earn their living. They work Monday through Saturday but on Sunday they tend to daily chores such as laundry, cooking and cleaning in a suburb of Accra, Ghana. "Everyone is struggling so we can't help each other," said Sharifa Montaro, 23, center. These girls come from the North hoping for a better life in the city and find themselves victimized, pregnant with no money to return.
