Joshua’s Story

“My mother left me with my father when I was still young and I have never seen her again. My father later took me to my grandmother who has cared for me almost all of my life.  She also takes care of some of my cousins.  She struggles to care for us all including feeding us and paying for our school fees.  Most of the time she fails to afford all school fees and I don’t attend school.  I would like to study so I can be a doctor someday and help all the sick kids”.

Now a part of the PFP Juniors program, Joshua attends a highly ranked primary school and has big dreams to become a doctor someday.  While PFP supports him with education and medical expenses, Joshua continues to live with his grandmother, who he loves very much. His Jaja (grandma) works hand in hand with PFP and is proud to play a role in supporting Joshua in being able to attend school.
