Epifania Joseph Minja
15 years old

Epifania is a quiet girl. Her birthday is November 19, 1995. Epifania’s dream is to become a secondary school teacher one day.

Her father has died and her mother Teresia needs the help to pay her school fees. Epifania is now attending M’langa Secondary School in Form 2 and has been provided with all her school supplies and a new uniform. In Form 1 last year Epifania stood at 120 out of 164 students which is below average. This may be due to headaches which she reported and which caused her to miss 12 days of school.

For her Canadian supporters Epifania drew wonderful pictures of cows, students, school buildings with descriptions in her best English.
