About

Patrick became an orphan following his father's death in May of 2011. His mother passed away in 2001, and he and his six siblings currently live alone in a house that is a walking distance from Highway Academy. When he is not studying to become an engineer, he can be found playing football with friends. He is an extremely lively and passionate boy who loves to dedicate himself fully to his work. He hopes to one day study at the University of Nairobi.

I would like to thank the Wema community for supporting me through my high school education. I have been provided with sufficient reading material and a conducive environment for study.

I love playing football and volleyball. I also like reading novels.

I would love to be a lawyer in future as I am really good in my humanities and languages. I am prepared to continue putting in the work required in order to realize my dream and hope for your continued support during this course.
Dear Patrick -- We hope your studies in engineering are going well! Alex and Caroline are looking forward to seeing you and the other students at Wema! Happy New Year! Rachel and Bart Breinin
