Microlina M.

Birthday: August 12, 2011 Sponsorship #: 2020-00-059JHC

Microlina is a 3rd grader at BGM Primary School. She lives in the village of Gros Balanse with her grandmother, two aunts, four siblings, and a host of cousins. She has a really big family. Her grandmother works as a vendor in the local market and her father died three years ago. Her grandmother tries to support the family but she often doesn’t even make enough to feed the family. They often go hungry, however, now that Macrolina is in school, she at least gets a hot meal there. She is very thankful for the opportunity to get a good education. When she grows up, she wants to become a nurse.

**Please note that each year, we depend on village volunteers whose understanding of the measuring process may create variations in accuracy. Often times, children do not know their age or birthday, and sometimes they measure smaller or larger because of illness. We do the best we can to give accurate updates, but there are cultural constraints that we cannot avoid. Also, these measurements were made in March of 2022. The child may or may not have promoted to the next grade by the 2022-2023 school year. Final exams had not been taken when the update was made. You can assume that the child will move on to the next grade up, but it is not guaranteed. Thank you for your understanding.
