Description of the situation: Christine comes from a polygamous family where her mother is the first wife of the father. In their house, they are five children where she is the last born and in the other house there are two children. The father is doing fishing while the mother is a house wife. Apart from his children, the father also takes care of other children who come from poor families plus his brothers and sisters who are orphans as well as him. However, the monthly income the father gets from fishing is very little to provide all the basic needs in life to the family. Christine's family lives in a three-room semi-permanent house which belongs to them. They use firewood for cooking, kerosene/small solar panel for lighting, and they get water from the lake.The girl should continue in her final year of primary school at Island of Hope community center in 2027. She needs support of 1500 CZK/62,5 EUR per month (18000 CZK/750 EUR per year).
