Sipiwe Zulu (14 years) does the washing and various other household chores once she gets home after school, Emjhumbane Vryheid Zulu Land South Africa

Sipiwe Zulu at her home with her grandmother Alexina and her cousins. Sipiwe's father died and her mother left them and has never returned. Life is tough for Sipiwe, but thanks to the support of her grandmother and her involvement with the "Keeping the Girls in School" programme which is run by Miet Africa and supported by the Global Fun, Sipowe will hopefully finish her education.
