Fransisca Munchindu is aged 13 and lives with her sister Concilia aged 10 and their 91 year old grandmother, they have no other relatives and are exceedingly poor. Fransisca could not go back to school in January 2007 due to lack of funds, but now like her sister, the Butterfly Tree has found her a sponsor.
