Emma Kamara

Country: Sierra Leone

My birthday is 2011-02-25

Status: Vulnerable Child

I want to be a nurse.

I enjoy playing balance ball (dodge ball).

My favorite subject is science.

Emma lives with her mother and 4 siblings. Their father abandoned the family when she was 4 years old. Emma's mother is the sole provider, and as a small business trader, she struggles to meet their needs. Emma is able to attend school, but she is asked to leave each time the next tuition payment is due. This causes lapses in her education while she waits at home for her mom to gather the money. Emma wants to be a nurse in the future. Her favorite subject is Science and she is in Class 2. Emma enjoys balance ball (dodgeball) with her friends. Thanks to her sponsorship, she has been able to continue her education.
