Hello I'm Jemalyn

Waiting for 6 months

I'm a 8 year-old girl and I live with my mother and father in Philippines.

My birthday is the 22nd May.

I love drawing, clapping hands to rhythm, dancing and playing with dolls.

I'm in year 4, and my favourite subject is Art.

£32 per month will empower her to overcome poverty
