Although both of Stephanie's parents are alive, her father suffers from a sever health issue with his lungs. Her father works as a teacher, but his poor health makes it difficult for him to work long hours. The salary he collects as a teacher is very small, and the medication he needs for his lungs is very expensive. This has made it very difficult for Stephanie's father to provide for the family.
If he is able to receive help from Caritas, he will be able to provide for his children and also get the medical help he needs.
Stephanie is a very sweet girl who loves to learn. She especially loves learning about poetry and rhyming.
