2019: Meet Princess, who has been generously sponsored by Peggy & John Sundquist. She is 14 years old and is in the 8th grade this year. XX lives in Gbapa, Liberia with her mother. Princess told the GPA team during her interview: “I need help because my father abandoned my ma and ran away on us. He left all of the responsibility with my ma alone. My ma is not able to care for all 8 of us because we are plenty work for her alone. We need help. I really want to go to school and I afraid she will not be able to send me because she just doesn’t have the money for all 8 of us to go do school”. Princess hopes to be a cook when she grows up.
