Jacqueline B.

Jacqueline has been a student of GSP for many years! She started on scholarship at Lilongwe
Girls School in Lilongwe and worked hard to score very high on her entrance exam for Malawi’s
College of Medicine.

Her mom is a single parent who tries her best to take care her five children. She sells vegetables
as a small business but does not make enough to feed them all. Jacqueline’s father sells
clothes but has another family and wife to support. Her parents never attended school but it is important to Jacqueline that she attends school!

She wants to be a physiotherapist and work in communities and rehabilitation centers to
improve people’s lives. Jacqueline loves to read and hang out with family and friends. She is
eager to learn new things all the time!
