Dear Editor

Greetings to you all.

I have a plea to all of you and it is my sincere hope that you will be able to help.

Those results that you see below belong to a child who is staying next door to my house here in Chinhoyi.

These results belong to this child who is living with a disability and is not so able bodied.

The child is partially blind and only sees with his left eye which is also short sighted.

The other eye is totally blind.

It is said that this boy was rejected by his biological father because of disability and was raised by the mother’s relatives.

Currently, where this child is staying, life is not at all rosy and the boy is facing a lot of challenges.

This boy wrote his grade 7 examinations in 2010 and passed but was told that there was no money to proceed to the next stage, secondary school.

He has not been attending school until 2017 after a well wisher adviced him to go to the social welfare in order to proceed with his education.

And true, after approaching the social welfare, he got assistance and started Form 1 in 2018 before sitting for his ordinary levels last year where he attained 7 grade C and better passes.

The problem now is that he wishes to proceed to A level but at Jairos Jiri, there are no A level classes.

He was advised by the social welfare to go to Lower Gwelo High School.

The challenge now is that they do not offer any assistance, uniforms, books, bus fare or anything.

The people that he is staying with are not making any effort to assist him to the extent that i ended up giving him the bus fare (US$10) to go and pick up his results in Kadoma.

I am appealing on anyone who is able to assist this child to get hold of him on his number below……
