About

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.

Hello Mwanahamisi~


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.

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