My name is Christina, and I am 13 years old, currently in Primary 6. I live with my parents in abject poverty, and I need your help to sponsor my education. The cost is £25 a month, or £300 annually, and I need £600 to complete the remaining years of my primary education.

A few years ago, I sat for my Primary Four exams and achieved great results, setting me on a path to success. As a girl, I am resolute in my determination to complete my primary education and eventually enrol in university. Here are my results:

• Kiswahili: A

• English: B

• Social Studies: B

• Maths: C

• Science and Technology: C

• Civics and Ethics: B

Sponsoring a child's education in Africa not only empowers young girls like me but also helps prevent early pregnancy, marriage, and other dangers that target girls in sub-Saharan Africa.

You can sponsor my education for just £25 a month and help me continue my studies. Alternatively, a one-off payment of £300 will cover my education for an entire year. Your support will also go a long way in providing food for my family. A family food parcel costs £90 for a month, which would greatly improve our situation.

Your support could change my life.
