Since the passing of her father, Maggie and her family have faced significant challenges. The loss of the family's primary provider plunged them into poverty, severely affecting the children's ability to consistently attend school. Maggie's mother, previously reliant on her husband for financial support, has struggled to adapt and find sustainable work to support the family's basic needs.
Attempting to make ends meet, Maggie's mother ventured into selling charcoal. However, this endeavor did not succeed as expected; she faced difficulties in collecting payments, often resulting in losses when customers took charcoal without paying. This business struggle has only added to the family's financial instability, leaving them unable to consistently afford essentials like food and clothing, much less regular school attendance for Maggie.
Maggie, a promising student, has been adversely affected by her sporadic school attendance, hindering her academic performance. Despite these setbacks, she remains a dedicated learner with aspirations of becoming a nurse. Providing support and stability in her education could significantly impact her ability to achieve her dreams and break the cycle of poverty afflicting her family.
