Comfort has returned to Girl Power Africa after spending about a year living with another family. During that time, she was unable to attend school because the family she stayed with could not afford to send her. Wanting very much to continue her education, Comfort made the brave decision to return to her original home and seek help so she could go back to school. She is now back in the program and is still in the fourth grade, continuing her education with renewed determination. Comfort has shown that school is very important to her, and her desire to learn reflects her commitment to building a better future. In past years, her confidence has grown as she worked hard in her studies, and she continues to carry that same strength and motivation. Comfort still dreams of becoming a mechanic one day, a goal that shows her ambition and willingness to work hard. With the support she now has, she has a renewed chance to focus on her education and move forward with hope. Sponsored by: Phil Vasby
