Hi, I'm Hana
I'm a girl, 12 years old and live in Ethiopia.
Hana is a healthy child from a very poor family. Her family is not capable of addressing her educational material needs due to their poor economic status. The opening of Yesus Mena School for the deaf and her enrollment in Holt’s sponsorship program helps her pursue the inclusive education that is being given at the deaf school.
Hana was healthy upon admission.
Hana lives with her parents and siblings. She has five brothers and one sister. Her family’s earning is from subsistence farming and daily labor. They earn too little to properly address their children’s basic and educational material needs. Nonetheless, her parents strongly believe that education creates a better future in their children’s lives and should be pursued at any cost.
