Help Debby pay off her Student Loans

Hello everyone

My name is Debora Mpwanaga.

I come from a family of 6 children and I am the 3rd of those six. When we were growing up our parents ensured we got the best education that we could get, because our parents wanted to give us the best life that any parent will want their children to have. They wanted to give us a hopeful future.

My parents worked hard to put us through school even when things were extremely bad. Getting 6 children through school must be quite hard however they managed.

I worked hard to ensure that what they gave would pay off. I wanted to make them proud and I did. The first among my siblings to graduate and further my studies. In between my studies I worked part-time at the university to help out where I can.

Life however had a turning point or twist to what I thought will never happen. I lost my dad in a terrible accident. I honestly haven't come to terms with his passing. This tragedy left my family in pieces and that time we were already affect by the covid. To continue with my studies I had to take loans that will pay my fee and my outstanding fees.

I had to take more loans to ensure my younger siblings also went to school. Youngest was still in high school and one in university.

I've been trying to pay back as slowly as possible. But honestly, right now I cant see dthe ifference as things dont seem to change or move forward. Everything is emotionally and physically overwhelming. Its been an overwhelming experience filling in my dad's shoes. The little that I earn has to feed my family and pay off these debts.

I am really hoping that by next year I would have paid out. With your help, I can reach this goal.

Thank you for taking the time to read my story.
