Sipilon is a 11 year girl who comes from a family of six children. The children lost their father this year due to illness, leaving their mother struggling to make ends meet. Sipilon mother doesn’t have a job, but she fetches water and sells it to her neighbors, enabling her to feed the children. The children sometimes stay with their grandmother, who also struggles to put food on the table.
The family believes in education, but is now unable to afford school fees. Their grandmother came to the office to ask for assistance. Sipilon was accepted to the MGEF Scholarship program January 2018.
