About

Diana is a confident and hard-working girl who completed primary school at Mbaikini primary school in 2012. Her father passed away on Diana's 12th birthday when she was just in the fifth grade and she was left under the care of her aging grandmother. Through support from well-wishers, Diana was able to complete primary education and score good grades in the national exam. Diana has a budding talent for leadership and served as a class prefect all through her primary education and was appointed the school head-girl on her final year in primary school. At the end of the 2015 Diana became pregnant and was forced to dropout to care for her child. After a healthy child was born, she has decided to return to school and hopes to one day become a doctor. Unfortunately her grandmother cannot raise the money needed to take Diana to school.

    Fiona

    Kenya

    Fiona is the last born in a family of three. She lives with both her parents who are casual labourers. Her mother had a major surgery on her left hand in 2020. This made them sell part of their property to take care of the medical bills and thus reducing their income significantly and again making it very difficult for them to take care of the education bills of their children. Fiona drew her inspiration to pursue success from her Math teacher and she aspires to be a civil engineer to make contributions in the development of infrastructure in her village.
