Victor Simango is nineteen years of age and was unlikely to have completed his education without the assistance of a sponsorship. In October 2007 Victor had to drop out of school as his mother had no spare funds to pay for his education, his father had died. This was devastating for Victor as he only had two years left at school. Now he happily attending grade eleven at the Mukuni High School, one of The Butterfly Tree’s projects.
