Kelvin Doe Built A Radio Station For His Community
Kelvin Doe grew up in Sierra Leone, one of the world’s poorest countries, with his mom and four siblings. As he grew up, he loved tinkering and creating. He was always scavenging for scraps and old electronics that he could create new things with — and then he would spend hours breaking them down and building them again. Kelvin eventually taught himself how to repair radios and then began providing free repairs for local families.
As he grew old, his projects grew bigger. At 14 years old, he created a radio transmitter and antenna and then began broadcasting his own show. He realized that a broadcasted show was so important to his community, especially because they never had an FM radio channel before.
