MY FAMILY:
My father died of a stroke and left my mother with 3
children in school. My mother has to be a breadwinner.
My mother's job is to sell bread, and sometimes to clean
houses for others. Her income is very low and unstable.
Besides, she often goes to hospital because she used to
have a surgery for fibrocystic breast. My family is now
sharing the house with my grandmother and uncle’s
family. My relatives also have a hard life with unstable
work and income, so they cannot help us. My mother has
to carry a very heavy burden, which is beyond her
ability to cover the family’s expenses and school fees.

MY STUDY:
I am the youngest child and in grade 2. My two older
brothers are in grade 9 and 6. I love art and I often
draw in my free time. I feel very happy to go to school.
But it’s so difficult for my mother to send me and my
siblings to school, even more difficult when my oldest
brother will enter high school after this summer.
Sometimes I’m a bit afraid that one of us will quit
school soon. I long for your helping hand so that I can
keep being at school and my mother’s burdens are
somewhat lightened.
