About Selvine is a young girl from a family with seven siblings. They live on a farm that does not belong to them, making it challenging to meet their basic needs. Her parents are involved in casual jobs to enable them cater for the needs of the family but it is not enough to facilitate paying of school fees. The parents do not have a stable source of income making it difficult to pay school fees for her and her other siblings. Selvine is passionate of becoming a doctor in the future and her wish is to find a sponsor who would enable her achieve this dream.
