World Education Fund runs scholarship and other educational programs for secondary school and university students in Tanzania and Kenya.
During my standard seven national examinations, I had an eye illness. From this I learned that your health has to be checked regularly. This moment is the one which inspired me to become an optician. I have to study very hard so as I can reach my dream of becoming an optician. The happiest moment when I felt proud of myself was when I scored division one of point seven and I took position number one in the class. The memorable moment was when I visited Manyara National Park through the sponsorship of my teacher. After I reach my dream, I will pay back my community by giving them education about how eye defects are caused and how to prevent them. I will help WEF by volunteering in several activities concerning the World Education Fund. When I have power to change in my country, I would like to change the system of education from much theory to more practice.
School Year 2024
An experience which I remember from early in my life was when I started to learn English. My most difficult experience was in standard five when our family did not have money, and we decided to move around the street and sell bananas in order to get some money. From that difficulty, I learnt to study hard in order to have a good standard of life. The moment when I felt especially proud of myself was when my last young brother was born. The happiest thing in my life is when I joined a school team. I want to be a large-scale farmer. I will get there by studying hard and performing well in agriculture subjects. After I reach my dream, I need to help my family and community by cooperating in different activities. I will provide employment to people and I will help WEF by helping the school. I would like to change my community by helping disabled people.

My most difficult experience was when I failed the biology exam. From that I learnt to put more effort into the biology subject so that I would not fail again. The moment that made me proud was when I passed my national examination because I wished to continue with study. My most memorable and happiest moment is when I celebrated my birthday together with my family and friends and I felt like I was reborn again. My dream is to become a midwife doctor. I will achieve my dream by studying hard and I will do my best to achieve my dream. If I had power to change the country, I would allow poor societies to have free health services without any charges.

The difficult experience in my life was when I was bullying my fellow people. It made them segregate me and I become alone. Hence it made me have no friends at all. From this, I learnt that we should not be cruel to other people and we should have good friendships. Something that makes me proud is to have many friends who I can share something with when at school. The memorable and happiest moment into my life was the visit to Arusha Snake Park. I saw various snakes. Some are big while others are small. My dream is to become an electrician so that I can ensure an adequate supply of electricity in the places which lack power supervision. When I have achieved my goals, I will help the community to harvest electric power in different ways, like biogas production, instead of depending on water as main source to get electricity.
School Year 2024
The experience that I had early in life was to score good marks in my class, whereby I got good grades which encouraged me to study hard in class. The difficult experience that occurred in my life was an accident on my way back home. I learnt that I should not play again in bad areas. In my life I am proud of myself. I was getting low marks in class but now I have managed to improve a lot. The most memorable and happiest thing in my life is to play football. It exercises my body regularly and hence strengthens my body system. My dream is to become a mechanical engineer. The best way to reach it is through studying hard in school, in physics, mathematics and chemistry. If I had power in my country, I would change the education system of the country so that it helps graduates to depend more on self-employment.
