My story

Charity grew up watching her mom and dad fight frequently; mostly because of not having enough money, but also because Charity’s dad refused to believe that she was his biological daughter. Charity’s mother worked up the courage to get a loan from the bank to afford Charity’s school; but when her dad found out, he severely beat Charity’s mother. Charity’s parents eventually separated; her father took all her siblings with him, but abandoned Charity and her mother. Her mom tried to find work but was unable to provide for her. When she became an IChooseYou child in 2011, she moved in with Mama Aida and started going to school. She works hard and is currently studying to become and electrical engineer.
