Wilna J.

Birthday: December 25, 2002 Sponsorship #: 2016-00-215M

Wilna is a bright fourteen year old who lives in a nearby village called Gros Balance. Wilna has two sisters and three brothers. Neither of her parents are educated nor do they have a source of income other than selling a few mangoes and avocadoes from the trees near their small home made of dirt. They also try to grow a little corn and beans to sell at market when they can. Wilna is happy that there is now hope that she might be able to break out of the poverty that her family has lived in for generations if she is able to find a sponsor that will pay for her education at Moliere’s school. She was able to go to school in the past simply because the principal let her go for free. However, now that she has moved to the secondary school, she won’t be able to go unless she has a sponsor. Wilna’s favorite subjects in school are French and Mathematics and she wants to be a nurse one day.

**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.
