Hujambo I'm Irene

That's hello in Swahili

Waiting for 12 months

I'm a 12 year-old girl and I live with my mother and father in Tanzania.

My birthday is the 23rd July.

I love ball games, playing house, reading and running.

I'm in year 6, and my favourite subject is Maths.

£32 per month will empower her to overcome poverty
