Stellah is a 14 year girl, who comes from a polygamist family of two wives and 12 children. The second wife passed away leaving only Stella’s mother to attend to all 12 children. Stella’s dad was very much in favor of education and worked hard as a logger to send the kids to school. Unfortunately, Stella’s father passed away last year when a log fell on him, killing him instantly. Now the family has no income and Stellah knew she would not be able to go to secondary school. She does very well in school, so her mother started to look for well wishers to help send Stallha to school. The local MGEF board member heard of the family’s plight and had Stellah fill out an application. MGEF accepted Stellah and she is very happy to be able to continue her education.
