CECELIA: S1130-DUA
October
2025
Cecilia is 12 years old and has been promoted to the fourth grade this year. She lives with her single mother, who is unemployed and cares for six children. Due to limited resources, Cecilia was often unable to attend school regularly and was sometimes sent home because she did not have the proper uniform, shoes, or school supplies. Despite these challenges, Cecilia has always been a serious and dedicated student, showing a genuine love for learning. Thanks to her sponsorship through the Girl Power Africa program, Cecilia is now able to attend school consistently. She is extremely grateful for this opportunity and is determined to make the most of it. Her commitment, focus, and resilience make her an inspiring example of a student who values education and works hard to succeed, no matter the obstacles. Sponsored by: Sarah Mani
