Nashipae's father died before she was school age, leaving her mother with six children, four sons and two daughters. The family went to live with her mother's parents, who still had young children to raise themselves. When Nashipae was brought to MGEF's attention, she was 8 years old and had never been to school. Just after Christmas in 2008, Nashipae's mother died after a brief illness, so she is now an orphan and continues to live with her grandmother during school breaks.
