This is Mirriet Chikwakwa. She’s 20 years old, and she has a dream she refuses to let go of.
Mirriet dropped out of school during Form 3 โ not because she wanted to, but because her parents simply could not afford the fees. Her mother works as a housemaid. Her father has no job. There was no money left for her education.
But Mirriet has not given up. She is hard-working, bright, and deeply determined to finish school so she can build a better life โ for herself and for her family.
How much to send Mirriet back?
MWK 15,000 (about $21) would cover her fees and let her return to class.
She has the ambition. She has the intelligence. All she’s missing is the $21.
