Miriam's Story

“I would like to give my sincere thanks and appreciation to Communities Without Borders (CWB) for supporting me. Without this help I would have stopped School a long time ago as my mother would not have been able to afford to send me and my sisters and brother to School. During the Grade 7 examination I had the highest marks (802) at our School and the School gave me a prize for doing so well. My hopes are to become a Lawyer when I finish School so that I can help administer justice in our country.” Miriam Moonga, from Garden Compound
