Sharlet Juma
Sharlet is the youngest of ten children. Her mother is the sole breadwinner and many of her siblings have dropped out of school to work and help provide for the family. Without MCF's help, Sharlet may have had the same fate. She is elated to be in MCF where she can pursue her education. For fun, she enjoys skipping rope with friends. She hopes to become a police officer.
