About Benard is a young boy who comes from a humble family. His parents are very passionate about farming and strive to provide for his basic needs as well as those of his younger siblings. Unfortunately the income they receive from farming is not adequate enough to enable them cater for his studies. Due to the harsh weather conditions, the crops are prone to damage, leaving the family with little or no income from the harvests. This has been a challenge for Bernard for it becomes so hard for his parents to manage to raise his school fees. It is his desire and wish to find a sponsor to help him with his studies. He would like to be a doctor in future.
