May 2022,
Sasha is a five year old girl, who lost her father a couple of months before she was born. He was killed in a traffic accident, leaving his wife alone to support Sasha and her brother. Realizing that she could not support the two kids on her own, her mother decided to move herself and her children home to Sasha’s grandparents house. Sasha’s grandparents are unable to work and her mother is not employed, but she manages to do some casual labor to help support the household. Unfortunately, she is not able to afford school fees. Sasha is very curious and dreams of going to school. She was brought to a local MGEF Board member, who helped her mother fill out the application. Sasha was accepted into MGEF’s Scholarship Program for Term 1 of 2022 and is very happy to be able to start school.
