Four years ago, her father left their family to go to Guinea in search of a better opportunity, but since then, they haven’t heard from him. Josephine lives with her mother and five siblings.

She is committed to her education and dreams of a brighter future. Although things are tough, she always helps her mother when she can and stays focused on her studies. Josephine hopes to make a difference in her life and the lives of her family members one day. Sponsored by: Joyce Jorgensen
