Maja Hentze Andersen: I won’t stop fighting

19-yearold Maja Hentze Andersen is taking a year away from school - like many other young people she’s working for an employment agency and as an assistant at a nursery school. She graduated from highschool in 2009 and she’s dreaming of a future as a midwife. But reaching that goal is a struggle because Maja is dyslectic.

Luckily she’s no stranger to hard work on the handball court and the many victories have helped her during tough times at school. Maja is a strong girl and she is not concerned about other people judging her. She knows that she has to fight extra hard to reach her goals – and she’s willing to do so.
