Miracle Joy lives with her mother and eight siblings after being abandoned by her father, who left the family to marry another woman. He has since had no involvement in the care or support of his children.

Since then, Miracle Joy’s mother has carried the full responsibility of raising the family on her own. She works hard to provide for the household by growing crops and keeping a few domestic animals, which she sells to meet basic needs and contribute toward school fees. Despite her efforts, the family continues to face significant hardship, and at times they go without meals.

To help supplement the household income, the older children occasionally engage in small income-generating activities such as selling firewood and carrying water in order to buy basic necessities like clothing and shoes.

Miracle Joy attends school but is often affected by a lack of school requirements, including fees and learning materials.

With consistent support, she would be able to remain in school, focus on her studies, and pursue a more stable and hopeful future.
