"The widespread lack of education affects my society from every periphery. The vast majority of people are illiterate and only a few people are able to go to school. Financials are predicaments for many families and my family is no exception. My brother and I attend school and my uncle covered our school tuition and other family expenses. He always did his best. When my uncle died in 2010, the financial tragedy presented itself. Apart from his unfortunate death, my mother was struggling to find a way to pay our tuition. She informed my brother and I that one of us had to leave school; I was lucky and am still receiving education. I am studying now at Abaarso School and I have never given up so I won't let my family down. Abaarso has helped me proceed with my education and dreams."

Sanga lives with his mother, 4 sisters, 2 brothers and one cousin. Sanga's father passed away in 2011 and his mother does not work. His oldest sister works as a maid to bring in a little money for the family. Sanga lives just outside N'gomebe in a village style house made out of hand made mud bricks. His house has no electricity, and no running water, so his mother and sisters fetch water daily for the family. Sanga is a good student. He recently passed his 7th grade examinations with Zambian standard of an A+ in all subjects. Sanga says he likes school because it will give him a good future and he has the best chance at providing for his family. He spends more time studying than playing with his friends because he knows how important his education is.
