Biography
Veronicah is a friendly and kind young girl. She is currently in grade seven at Donyo Primary School where she is an average student. Veronicah is the second born of three children who live with their mother and father in a small, one room house. Her parents do not have adequate education or opportunities to get stable jobs and depend on casual labor/odd jobs in the community to support their family. Veronicah desires to work hard and create a better future for herself. We believe with the help of a friend, she will be able to overcome the challenges she faces and become a woman of God who is a blessing to her generation. Would you be that friend?
