After the passing away of her mother, Preeyaporn, her sibling and the great grandmother had to move and stay with her aunt and uncle who earn for a lving as chicken butcher. Everyday before going to school and after school, Preeyaporn helps her aunt with all chores and in the weekends she gets up very early to help clean the chicken after butchering and bring to sell in the market. The more she can work means the more money she earn for the school allowances for her and her sibling.

Preeyaporn told us that "After my mom passed away, my great grandmother, little sibling and I had to move and stay with aunt and uncle. I do not have any idea on how long they could support my education. However, I will keep studying hard so that I can have a good job and earn enough income to support my great-grandmother and little sister. If possible and if any opportunity arises, I would like to be a Math teacher because I want to teach the students to be knowledgeable. I would like to say a big that for my sponsor who provide me a scholarship support."
