2025
Rena is 15 years old and received a double promotion this year into the 4th grade, a remarkable achievement that reflects her dedication and hard work in school. She continues to approach her education with determination and gratitude, especially after waiting four years on the Girl Power Africa waiting list for the opportunity to be sponsored and attend school. Reina shared that her favorite subjects this year are math and science, where she enjoys learning new concepts and challenging herself academically. She lives with her single mother and her ten brothers and sisters. Rena explained to the Girl Power Africa team that her father denied her when her mother became pregnant, and as a result, she has never had a father in her life. Despite the many challenges she faces at home, Rena remains focused on her education and committed to building a better future. Her dream is to become a nurse one day so she can help save lives and give back to her community. Rina is deeply thankful for the support she has received, which continues to inspire her to work hard and believe in her dreams.
