Anita Balami

Anita Balami is an eighteen year old from Chaimale Village near Pharping. Her mother passed away when she was young and sadly for Anita, her father passed away in 2012. Grieving for her father, she stopped going to school and didn’t want to continue, however after much support from our Nepal team, she decided to take the SLC board exams. She failed the mathematics section but her determination had been restored and studied for the exams once again. She passed and with the help of Rukmini Foundation, continued through the 12th grade to graduate in 2015. Since her family has had to deal with so many health issues, Anita wants to become a Nurse to help other families avoid the kind of tragedies she has had to deal with at such a young age.
