Rhoda

Rhoda is 20 years and in second year student of the Nurses and Midwifery Training School at Sunyani, Ghana. Rhoda has been asked to defer her studies because her aunt (her guardian) can no more afford to pay her fees. Rhoda lost her mom and only parent when she was 2 years and since then, her aunt has been responsible for her upkeep; but she too lost her husband and her petty trading has fallen on the rocks. In spite of all that, she managed to put Rhoda into nursing school during the first year. However, things are so difficult that she can no more continue to sponsor her niece. At the moment, HopE Ghana has approached the school authorities to let Rhoda be in school with the promise to pay her tuition including her arrears. Why not help to make such a beautiful dream come true?
