About

Early in my life I liked to play football. I'm the second born child in my family. In my family I have a mother, father, two brothers and two sisters. My father is a mechanic in a garage and my mother is a cake baker. I like to study science subjects because my dream is to be a doctor. I know that education will help me to achieve my dream and allow me to help others.

Hello,

I hope this message finds you well. How is everything going with you? I am in my senior year, that means I have to deal with college applications while taking quite a few difficult courses. However, I think I enjoy the challenge. I like all my classes, especially AP Studio Art class. I need to prepare more than 20 pieces of art work before next May for this class. It is both challenging and rewarding. How is your school? What classes are you taking? I hope you are doing well.

Cheers,

Anthony
Dear madam Judy,
I hope that you are doing fine and am also okay how about your daily routine?
I would like to appreciate for your support from the beginning and am so happy for being apart of the school fund family.
I thank God that my examination result are not bad as I got division three of 23 point and I got a lot of combination are balanced. But on science subject I didn't perform that well as I get D in physics and chemistry and C in biology. In art subjects I get C in almost all subjects.
After finished form 4 I decide to do work in garage so that I can be able to afford for my small needs and not to disturb my parents.
As for now we are waiting for school selection and also I need school fund support so that I can be able to continue with my studies.
And today am happy because we are filling the scholarship form and I hope I will get your help once again.

Best regards
Ismail.

    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.
