It's at this moment that Jane, the inspirational 'mother of Madoya' springs into action sharing her story. As it unfolds, Jane began her life wealthy in a comfortable lifestyle. In high school her father left the family - taking with him his role in the household and means of provision. Jane, her mother and siblings, fell instantly into poverty and began an entirely new life as beggars in the slums. Jane's mother, strong and determined, told Jane - accept this new reality and work to change it, or you will die with rage and injustice overwhelming your heart.
A pivot point for Jane, she went from physical illness over the abandonment and grief of the situation, to joining her mother in the determined fight to overcome. She found work, saved money to put herself through school and, as soon as she broke free from life in the slums, joined MOHI to return dedicating her life's work to the children and families of Madoya.
