Monika
All the 1moreChild boys know when it is pay-day as they hear Monika whooping and hollering and see her grinning from ear to ear. Monika is a mother of three who became the 1moreChild house mother in September when the boys moved into the boys’ home.

Monika had been providing for her family by doing odd jobs for neighbours and picking through the rubbish dumps. None of her children had been to school and they were barely surviving. Once she started receiving a regular salary from 1moreChild (of around £50 per month) her children have started going to school and eating regularly. Monika has even opened a bank account and is saving to buy land. She is a great worker and loves playing cards with the boys!
