About Rashidah Tendo

Rashidah Tendo is an 8 year old girl in Primary 2. During the FLCF home visit on 5 February 2026, she was identified as being at risk of missing school due to poverty, limited caregiver support, and a medical condition (umbilical hernia) requiring treatment. Her caregiver is an elderly grandmother with limited capacity to meet school and health requirements.

Beneficiary Additional Details

Rashidah is described as having slow learning abilities and needs consistent school attendance and learning support. The family is struggling to meet basic school requirements, including fees, shoes, and scholastic materials. In addition, Rashidah has been diagnosed with an umbilical hernia, with an estimated cost of about USD 200 for surgery, which the household cannot raise.
