Lagum Gifty
Gifty lives with her grandmother, who cares for her and her two siblings. Her parents are separated: her father has left the family, and her mother lives elsewhere. At her grandmother’s age, it is difficult to provide for the children's needs, so the household depends on farming for survival. Even so, Gifty is described as a social and bold girl who enjoys jumping rope. She dreams of becoming a nurse, and having the chance to continue her education will be an important step toward that dream.
