About

My most difficult experience was when my mother passed away. She used to cheer me up and motivate me to study harder and harder. Everything started to change and I realized that I should value every moment of my life. I have to work hard to achieve what I want in my life. My dream is to become a biology professor. I want to do research on living things and find cures for diseases. I have to study hard, valuing time, and to appreciate the kindness of people around me. They stand up for me and raise me up. It motivates me to search for more educational material and put more time into my studies. I was really proud to be under The School Fund’s sponsorship I will have some people who are like family to me to support my education. I was also really proud when I was selected to study for a month at Babson College Two years from now I want to be able to help, motivate, and inspire, and solve many problems that people around me face, so that to grow their economic status.

    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.
