Meet Nakavovu Sharon, A Story of Family Impact
Sharon has been a
student at Doors Primary School since it started in 2012. Her mother was one of
the original members of the former aDOORned jewelry and artisans program of
Doors. In fact, it was her mother’s story that motivated the creation of that
program within Doors.
Sharon’s mother is a single parent with 4 children. She
found herself struggling to provide for the family and in a spiral of
hopelessness due to her circumstances. Selling herself was the solution she
came to in order to feed the many mouths in her home. It was through Doors that
she was given hope in darkness. She saw the Gospel lived out like never before
and seeds of faith were planted. She was empowered to leave her former line of
work, and provide for her family in other, healthier ways.
Sharon has come to a knowledge and love of God through her
attendance at Doors Primary School. She has been treated in the school’s
nurse’s office for typhoid, malnutrition and malaria. She says her favorite
things about the school are “the good
teachers and the friends I have made. Also, the games that take place at the
school.”
Despite her history, Sharon has a bright and promising
future that awaits her thanks to the grace of God. She is at the top of her
class and dreams of being a doctor one day. As she puts it, “Science is my favorite subject. I like
science because I want to be a doctor in the future and you can’t be a doctor
when you don’t like science.”
Sharon is currently unsponsored.
Through your partnership of only $37/month, Sharon will be able to continue her
education at Doors Primary School as she chases her dreams.
