My name is Cheilla and I’m 15.
Before joining the New Generation programme, my life was full of challenges and difficulties. I live with my grandmother and my sisters; my parents abandoned us when we were little, so we live with my grandmother now, and she puts in all the effort trying to look after us.
I was also exposed to challenges at school, and it was difficult for me to continue my education due to a lack of school fees and school materials.
Education is important to me because it will enable me to get a diploma so that I can apply for a job. I will join Class 6 (Primary 6th) in the academic year 2024-2025.
I have a dream of becoming a great gynecologist, but I also have a deep desire to help street children and take care of my grandmother.
