School fees payment

Phyliz okwemba is my name. I am 17 yrs and a form three student at Lugulu Girls High School. My single parent(mother) had not been in a position to pay my school fees since she lost her job some two years ago. When I was in form two lack of fees on my part was a real problem and I could frequently be send home. In the process I was missing classes and this really reduced my perfomance. We looked for a sponsor but we didn't get. Luckily our church pastor noticed my problem and decided to help me. From then he has been paying my school fees and in class I haven't dissappointed because I am working hard. I am happy and I see hope in my future.
