Hi, I'm Panha
I'm a girl, 13 years old and live in Cambodia.
Panha was selected into our program because her family is very poor. She has not sufficient food to eat and lacks in proper education. Her mother is a member of our self-help group.
Her physical and mental health was fine upon enrollment. Her ears could hear well and her eyes could see clearly. She does not have good hygiene yet.
Panha lives with her mother, an aunt, and a sister cousin. This family lives in a small house made of tent roof rusty; it sinks when the rain falls. Her parents got divorced when her mother was pregnant. Her mother does not have job; she raises some chicken and catches fish to sell at the market to get income. Her aunt stays at home and does not work. Her cousin is a garment worker, and earns USD 7 a day, but it is not regular. The family lives in a difficult situation, lacking of foods, rice and money to support their children. Therefore, Panha needs sponsorship in order to support her education.
