Hi, I'm Birke
I'm a girl, 12 years old and live in Ethiopia.
Birke has joined Wallana KG school in this academic year by her mother as it is the only school in the area that provides quality education without school fee. Besides, her parents are not capable to address her basic and educational material needs due to their poor economic status.
Birke was healthy both mentally and physically.
Birke lives with her parents and they are 10 in the family. She has 7 siblings: 7 sisters and no brother. She is the last born in the family. The father earns a little income from subsistence farming and her mother is a housewife. However, they are striving to address their children’s basic and educational materials needs. Thus, the child's enrollment into the Holt’s sponsorship program is a great opportunity to follow her education.
