Amy Bell Memorial School
The Amy Bell Memorial school is being run by Sarah Peat, wife of Christopher Fisher and daughter-in-law of Lynn and Pete Fisher. Sarah is a wonderful young lady who is totally committed to the education and wellbeing of over 200 children at the Amy Bell School. The school not only supports the 40+ children from the orphanage but an additional 150 to 200 children from throughout the region. Sarah has truly become the personification of Amy Bell in this special place.
Kelene Misson Hospital
Amy Bell Charities also supported the construction of a new maternity ward for the Kalene Mission Hospital. A portion of that maternity ward is known as the Reese and Charlotte Wheeler Neo-Natal Center in honor of the Bell’s two grand-nieces. Reese and Charlotte are the beautiful twin daughters of Ellen and Corey Wheeler.
