MICHAEL, 14

Michael is 14 years old and he lives with his grandparents in a few small rented rooms in a house. He always helps his grandparents to collect water, firewood and do housework at the weekend. Michael dreams of becoming an Electrical Engineer and wants to help support his family. In his spare time he learns how to repair and fix electrical equipment. His grandparents cannot afford to pay for his secondary school education, which worries him, so sponsoring Michael will bring back his hope of becoming an Electrical Engineer.
