Meet Joyblessing

  • Age: 8
  • School Level: Grade 3
  • Favorite Hobby:
  • Aspires to Become:
  • Home Background Information: Joy lives in a family of five, including her mother, aunt, and two cousins. Her father has never been part of her life, which occasionally saddens her, especially when she sees her friends with their fathers. Financial difficulties forced them out of their previous home, leading them to move in with Joy's aunt. Following her aunt's recent passing, Joy's mother now takes care of both Joy and her two cousins.
  • Personality Traits: Bright and active.
  • What getting a sponsor would mean: Getting a sponsor would guarantee her quality education, ensuring that she can attend school regularly without the worry of financial barriers. It would also provide her with essential resources such as school supplies, uniforms, and nutritious meals.
