Yanit is a very smart girl who lives with her mother and her elder sister. They live in a poverty-stricken rural neighborhood with poor hygiene and shortage of medical centers. The child Is in preschool. She and her mother speak the local Amharic language. Her father has deserted the family, but her mother is a daily laborer. As her minimal income is not enough to cover even their most basic needs, she plans to change their lives by being engaged in income generating petty trade activities. This can be achieved if they get some support. The family lives in a small hut made of grass and mud, and the nearby school and health center lack basic equipment and qualified professionals. In order to overcome the poverty Yanit is facing, and let her have access to better medication, education, and clothing, she needs to be enrolled in the project.
