About Hellen lives with both her parents. Her parents rely on farming for their source of income but due to lack of rains in the area they have not gotten much produce in their farm hence their income being too little to provide all the basic needs to their family. Getting money for Hellen’s school fees has been a challenge for them and this tends to affect Hellen’s performance in school as she is often sent back home due to not having completed paying her fees. Hellen’s wish is to get someone who would support her in her education.
