About

Born in 1995, Faith is the second born child in a family of five. Before joining Nyaani secondary school, Faith was in Nyaani primary school where she scored very well and earned a place in a boarding school. Her parents could not afford boarding fees so she joined Nyaani secondary school. Her father is a casual laborer in a cement manufacturing company while the mother is a housewife. Her eldest sister is in form three in a different school and her aunt helps in paying for her school fees. Faith is determined to achieve her dream of becoming a doctor in the future. She sees education as the only solution to break the vicious circle of poverty.

Good Morning Faith!
I am so sorry that I missed the e mail telling me you had written in May! I was thinking about you with great love this morning and checked the School Fund website and saw your message. In the two months that have gone by, I hope you've been enjoying your studies and the truly impressive progress you've made. Is this your graduating year, 2015? If so, what are the next steps for your education? I am envisioning you achieving your fullest goals and would be honored to continue to help you along. One day, we will meet and celebrate the bridge between our worlds. All my love, Wendy

Hi Weddy,

I hope you are doing well my loving Weddy. I am going to go back to school tomorrow after the holiday. This is the second term of the year and I hope it will be good.I am still working hard in my studies to make my dream come into reality. During the vacation I had the privileged to access revision materials and textbooks from Kenya Connect learning resource center. I have actually benefited a lot and I know I will improve my grades.Finally pass my warm regards to Daria and Sage. You are always in my mind. I love you all.
