Novi, who is soon turning 18, is a second-year senior high school student, or 11th grader, from Gianyar.
Novi has an older brother who recently graduated from senior high school but faces challenges in securing stable employment to assist with Novi’s school fees. Furthermore, he has outstanding debts from his own senior high school expenses. Novi’s younger sister is currently in kindergarten.
Novi's parents, who themselves discontinued their education, work as laborers and earn less than the minimum wage through various manual labor activities such as working in rice fields or construction sites. Novi, since starting senior high school as a freshman last year, has been unable to pay her school fees, accumulating a debt of $350, which may force her to drop out if not addressed.
Despite these challenges, Novi is passionate about Culinary Arts and aspires to become a chef, specializing in tourism at a vocational senior high school. Cooking has been her hobby, especially since her parents are occupied during the day. Although her primary interest lies in the culinary arts, Novi has chosen Spa Club as her extracurricular activity, appreciating the intricacies of professional spa treatment.
With only one motorbike in the family, Novi relies on rides from friends to commute to school. To contribute to her family's income, she engages in tasks such as making offerings and babysitting for neighbors, although these opportunities are not consistent. On average, Novi earns $1 per day, a meager sum that falls far short of covering her school expenses.
Made Novianti is currently in grade 10, with one year and seven months remaining until completion. The monthly school fee is 580,000 IDR, resulting in a total requirement of 11,020,000 IDR.
