About Charity comes from a single parent family after the passing of her father when she was ten years old. Her mother became the sole provider but due to the low wages she earns it became a challenge for her to provide food and educate her children. After Charity completed her primary level she performed well and was called to a good secondary school, unfortunately her mother did not have enough money to send her to secondary school thus she had to relocate and went to live with her elder sister who was able to enroll her in school. Her sister’s source of income is little and struggles to keep Charity in school and quite often she is sent home due to having not completed her fee payment. In future she wishes to become a lawyer so that she may be able to support girl child rights.
