About

Pastory Leone comes from Moshi, and is one of the brightest students at Msamaria Street Children's Home in Moshi, Tanzania. When he was young, his father died and after his father died, his mother told him about school. His mother told him to avoid bad friends, and to focus on his studies, however she was soon unable to pay for Pastory's fees, and he had to drop out. Pastory was afraid to go back to school, because the school was angry that he could not pay. That is when Mr. Mapunda, the Director of Msamaria, found Pastory, and decided to help him. With the help of Msamaria and The School Fund, Pastory will be able to return to school, and continue his education. He says that, "often I like to read and to think about my life. Mr. Mapunda told me without reading, you will get a bad life. I will do good in everything. I will read everytime because I want to get a good life."
