Muraho I'm Niyomufasha

That's hello in Kinyarwanda

Waiting for 11 months

I'm a 17 year-old girl and I live with my mother and father in Rwanda.

My birthday is the 25th December.

I love group games, jumping, skipping and playing with marbles.

I'm in year 9, and my favourite subject is Language.

£32 per month will empower her to overcome poverty
