Who is Johanna?
One of the first to start studying thanks to the support of steps for children in Windhoek. In „Who is Johanna?“ she introduced herself once again and talked about her life so far.
Johanna is in Okakarara, Namibia born and grew up with her parents. She has two younger sisters.
„It's so unfortunate that I don't have a brother.“
Life situation
Johanna lives with her family in a squatter settlement where they fetch water from public taps. They have no electricity and use firewood for cooking and battery lamps for light in the evening.
„Though life seems a little bit difficult, we have
3 rooms which is more than enough to accommodate all of us.“
School
Right from the start, Johanna wanted to study because she knows that this is the only solution to eradicate poverty in her family. „Sooner or later, my siblings will always have to be able to count on me as their first-born.“
I like!
„My favourite food is meat and pizza and I like listening to
House Music (South African songs).“
I really don't have much to say about myself. I am hardworking and dedicated to being successful. Honestly, I am a very serious person when it comes to my school work. Education is my number one priority, where I can always do a little more to achieve my goals.

She is from the first generation of guardian angels, so to speak - we are happy for her and will continue to support and accompany her on her educational journey, now as a #stepsstudent.
