Candidate for a scholarship for students with disabilities 
attending regular schools Academic year 2023
 
Hello, my name is Wanwisa Garik or Bai Kaew. I am studying in grade seven at Ban Tha Bo School. (Bo Si Rattana Amnuai), Nakhon Phanom Province.
I have a disability. My legs and feet were deformed from birth causing. There are four members in my family: my grandmother, my mother, a younger brother and me. I live at grandma’s house, which is a one-story wooden house. There are some broken floors so I have to be careful when walking. My mother is an irregular worker with unstable income, while grandma works as a cook at the temple and cooks food for sale.

and younger brother.
 
Every day, my younger brother and I have to get up at 4 am to help my grandmother prepare Khao Jee (Northeastern style grilled sticky rice dipped in egg) to sell in front of the school in the morning. We earn about 100 baht per day. I also bring food and rice from home to eat at school during lunch to help families save money.

with her grandparents.
 
My favorite school subject is art because I like drawing very much, especially about nature or images of things that I see every day. I want to be a business owner of a product with its own brand name and something that can be done at home, as I want to stay close to my family.

 

Every day after school, Bai Kaew helps with all the housework
to ease her grandmother's burden. 
 
I would like to thank the philanthropist who will consider giving me a scholarship to continue my study to Grade 8 in academic year 2023. I promise to study hard and spend the fund wisely. I really expect to get this scholarship.
