Due to her family’s financial situation, Tonderayi was unable to consistently go to school, as her school fees were often not paid. When she was able to go back to school, which wasn’t very often, she did not have any stationery supplies, textbooks or a school uniform. Travelling to school daily was also a struggle for her, as she had to walk a very long distance to and from school every day, making her really tired and unable to fully focus on her studies.
Through our holistic support provided to Tonderayi, we were able to remove all of her barriers, allowing her to go to school and continue with her education. Our health check examinations carried out, identified that she had multiple health issues, such as an Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) and severe malnutrition. From this analysis, we were able to address these two health issues, and now she is perfectly healthy. After receiving her new bicycle, Tonderayi is now able to travel to school a lot easier and quicker, allowing her to have more energy to focus on her schoolwork.
Tonderayi is now a lot more confident at school. Once she finishes her secondary schooling, she has dreams of going to university to become an Teacher.
