MERCY: S604-GBE

Mercy was promoted to the 8th grade this year, a testament to her resilience and commitment to her education. Despite her desire to participate in school activities, her responsibilities at home leave her little time. Each morning before school, Mercy fetches about 10 gallons of water from the nearby water wall for her family. After school, she heads to the local market to buy food, fetches more water, cooks, cleans the house, and sweeps the surroundings before settling down at night to do her homework. She continues to live with her mother and remains determined to become a seamstress one day. Mercy’s dedication to balancing her responsibilities and education is truly inspiring.
