Kou: S738-SUA

Kou continues to show dedication to her education and is proud to have passed to the 5th grade this year. She lives with her mother, who depends on farming and often struggles to provide for all of their children, but she remains motivated and focused on her goals. She enjoys science and reading and hopes to become a nurse one day so she can help others in her community. Kou helps at home with water and small chores each day and is grateful for GPA’s support with school supplies and fees, which make it possible for her to stay in school and continue progressing.

Kou was promoted to the fourth grade this year and is excelling in her studies. Her favorite subject this year is science, where her curiosity and passion truly shine. According to her teacher, Kou is not only very strong in her lessons but also incredibly punctual, always arriving on time and ready to learn. Kou’s dedication extends beyond the classroom. Whenever there’s an activity or task at school that needs extra hands, Kou is the first to volunteer, as long as her schedule allows. She is dependable, hardworking, and deeply committed to her education and school community. Kou’s serious approach to her studies and willingness to lend a hand wherever needed make her a standout student. We are so proud of her achievements and know she will continue to accomplish great things! Sponsored by: Ann De Broux

Kou is promoted to third grade and continues to live with her uncle.  She dreams of becoming a secretary one day. Sponsored by: Ann De Broux

Sustaining enrollment in school is a tricky venture for many Liberian families.  With very limited or no savings, a family might not have the means to enroll their child/children for the next semester IF someone becomes ill and requires medical treatment (for example). Seven-year-old Kou lives with her uncle in his extended family household and is thankful for a scholarship to help her enroll in second grade.  First grade was paid for by her uncle, but due to family related setbacks he was unable to sustain Kou’s enrollment this school year.  Thank God, with the support of GPA’s amazing sponsors, Kou’s present and future enrollments will be sustained, which will be one less thing for her uncle to worry about.  Kou’s uncle extends his thanks and appreciation.
