Meet Marie, who has been generously sponsored by Ali Hall. She is 9 years old and is going to school for the first time this year. Marie lives in Sopea Town, Liberia with her mother. About 4 years ago Marie’s father, who was the only bread winner in the family, walked out on the family leaving his wife with 6 children. Not long after he left, two of the children died from malaria. Unfortunately, the mom is unemployed and couldn’t afford to send Marie and her siblings to school. Her interests are helping her mom and she hopes to be a nurse when she grows up.
