Hello, my name is Maka and I am 14 years old. Before discovering Afrikable, I helped my mum take care of my younger siblings, clean, wash clothes and sometimes cook. I could not go to school and could not read or write. Since my mum got sick because of her recent pregnancy and our dad left us, I had to work chopping wood and carrying it into town to sell so I could earn money.
Since my mum has been working for Afrikable, I have been able to go to school. What I like most is being able to learn and go to school with older children. I want to be a pilot.
