My name is Shakira, I am 11 years old. I am in standard 4, when I finish school, I want to be a doctor because I want to help people in my community and the whole country. I live with my siblings.

When I wake up in the morning, I help my brother do the household chores like sweeping around our house, fetching firewood, going to school, and playing with friends.

It is a big and beautiful community full of smiling people, and many kids do not attend school because of poverty.

Pray for my parents who have gone to do piece work to be blessed. Help me with prayers so that I can reach my goals, also help me with some school materials.
