About

I come from a family where my parents can afford food and other family expenses but it is quite hard for them to pay school fees. I attend Iringa Girls Secondary School where I always lead in my class. I am very interested in studying how the economy works. Tanzania is taking big steps to grow its economy. I want to be an economist. Being sponsored by TSF help me to achieve my dream, then I can help my country people who have problems like mine. Through TSF, our life has changed for the good.

Hello Sintike,


I am writing just to say hello, and to ask how you are doing? Also to ask how your school classes are progressing and what subjects you like the best.

I am well, the United States is going through a very difficult time politically, the people are marching in peaceful protest on the streets. It is a bit of several issues altogether, women’s rights, climate change, the United States’ place in the world, and immigration from other countries into the States.

Personally, I also think it is about our private value systems and beliefs; the rights of all citizens to education, healthcare, and racial equality; these concerns are running smack up against an older world of power and wealth.

It is a time of change in America and few of us are easy in our minds; many of the women I know are giving their time to call centers reminding people to register to vote, or writing postcards, or attending lectures or protests.

I am happy though that we live in a Democracy, and that we live in a country that allows us to express our beliefs.

Be well, I hope to hear from you.
Karen

I am enclosing a photo from a recent protest in front of our highest Court, the Supreme Court.

    Kenya

    Emmaculate is the last born in a family of three; one sister and one brother. Her parents rely on subsistence farming for livelihood, which has been greatly affected by the changing climate. While in primary school, Emmaculate spent most of the time at home while the other students were at school. This was because of lack of finances to cater for some of the requirements at school. This did not stop her but instead propelled her towards achieving her dream of becoming a cardiologist in order to save lives. Her role model is Barack Obama and she likes his phrase of ‘Yes we can’. Moreover, she likes reading story books during her free time.
