Grace, along with her sister Jane, resides with their grandmother, as their parents' struggles with alcoholism have led them to neglect their responsibilities towards their children. Following the recent passing of their grandfather, the responsibility of caring for the family has fallen upon their grandmother's shoulders. Unfortunately, her age prevents her from engaging in work, leaving the family without a reliable source of income. Consequently, they face dire financial hardship, often having to forgo meals to make ends meet.

Although Grace possesses a deep passion for education, her grandmother's limited financial means meant that she could only afford to send her to school for a single month at the start of the year. Subsequently, financial constraints compelled her to be sent back home due to unpaid fees, rendering her unable to return to school since. The dire circumstances of their household make it nearly impossible for her grandmother to find the funds necessary to cover her school fees.

Grace's dream is to become a nurse, and she longs to have the opportunity to attend school regularly. If assisted, she will have the chance to pursue her education and achieve her goal.
