About

Shangwe is a student at Lugalo Secondary School graduating in 2011. He lives with his aunt and uncle because his mother died in 1998 and his father couldn't take care of him. Shangwe is an incredible student who enjoys all subjects, but he is mainly interested in physics and chemistry. Along with his best friend Yasini, Shangwe hopes to become a doctor in order to help the thousands in Tanzania who are sick and don't have access to medical help. Shangwe and Yasini do all their homework together, and put studying as their absolute top priority now that they don't have to work for school tuition. For this, Shangwe says thank you a million times to all TSF donors.

Hi everybody!
I can't forget this organisation because it has played a great role in my life. I always thank all who supported me in any means, may be some people can not see advantages of this organisation as benefitial members or donors but I believe each student who already passed through this organisation saw it's potential in his/her life.
I would like to encourage all donors to put more efforts so as many students can have access to this service, and the students to perform well in their studies so as to attain the stated goals by the organisatin and hence to reach their dreams.
I'm a graduate of 2018, Bacheror degree in Science with education( Chemistry and Biology ) because this organisation made me to be who am I today but without putting much efforts myself I can't achieve it.
I would like to inspire all the students in this organisation to put much efforts in their studies because they are luck to get this service. Thank you so much.

    I live with my mother. My father passed away when I completed standard seven. I want to be an engineer. I give effort and attention so that I can perform well on my exams. My dream is to be a mechanical engineer but due to my poor family background I was afraid that I could not make it. But with the aid of TSF I believe that I will be able to fulfill it. I was happy and excited when I was selected for A-levels because of my national examination results. My family feels proud to have a daughter like me.

    I am a form 5 student. Before reaching A-level education, I faced difficult moments especially in school matters. It was hard for my parents to pay my school fees and other expenses. They had to depend on other relatives but they could not provide anything essential to my studies. I reached a time when gave hope but my parents encouraged me a lot. I made more effort and succeeded in joining form 5 at Lugalo Secondary School. If I can become a surgeon, it will help me to have good life and help my family and other people who face health problems but cannot afford payment for treatments. I hope to get there by making more effort in my studies. The moment that I felt proud of myself was in 2016, when I become the overall winner of essay competition in the Dar-es-Salaam region and was given lots of gifts. The happiest moment in my life was when the School Fund chose to sponsor me. I am really happy this moment because I am seeing the light of achieving my goals. Two years from now, I want to have completed my form 6 national examination and be at Muhimbili University or another big university taking the courses I need. I am thankful for this chance. I promise to help others because you helped me to meet my dreams.
