About

Sheila is the second born in a family of three. A very outgoing girl who takes any challenge that comes her way with confidence. She lives in Kibera slums with her family. With both her parents depending on menial jobs to make ends meet, funding her education is stretching her parents' income to the extreme. Having financial assistance to complete her studies will ease of the pressure from her and give her ample time to concentrate on her studies and continue working towards becoming a top lawyer.

    Enoch Kisavi

    Kenya

    Enoch comes from a humble family of two and he is the first born child. His parents are unemployed and depend on casual jobs to sustain their family and thus unable to raise his secondary school fees. Despite staying home for most of the time throughout his primary education due to lack of school levies, his dream to become a mechanical engineer has kept her focused. Enoch has seen a number of people in his area struggle too much when their machines and engines break down and there is no one to help repair them. He would also like to help the needy and poor families support their children in becoming better persons in the future. His hobbies are drawing and taking photographs. He holds on to the quote that says the road to success is not straight.
