Grandma (Marie) is now living with her grandmother following significant family changes and continues to rely on education as a source of stability and hope. Due to health challenges, she did not advance this year, but she remains determined to improve and work toward promotion in the future. With GPA’s support, Marie is encouraged to stay focused and continue building her academic foundation.

Grandma, whose real name is Marie, has shown incredible resilience and determination this year. She was promoted to the third grade, despite facing significant challenges at home. When her mother fell and broke her leg, Grandma took on the responsibility of helping care for her, all while keeping up with her studies and maintaining her commitment to school. English remains her favorite class, and she continues to dream of becoming a pastor. Her teachers describe her as a very good student—dedicated, hardworking, and a positive presence in the classroom. Grandma’s ability to balance her responsibilities at home with her education is truly inspiring. We are so proud of her for staying focused on her dreams, and we look forward to seeing her continue to succeed. Thank you to everyone supporting her on this journey. Sponsored by: Sarah Mani
