About

Class Rank: 6 I was born in 1998, I am in Form 2 class at Iringa Girls' School. I live with my uncle, my parents died. My uncle is a small scale farmer, so he can not pay all the school contributions. So sometime I am late to come back school because of money. I know though education can achieve my dreams. I believe if I get a help I will perform well in my studies. I believe education is the key of my life. If I complete my studies, I will help others with problem like me.

Hi School fund students

How are you? How is school?

I enjoy reading your journal. I would love to learn about your life. You can write back to tell me about your family, like how many brothers and sister do you have? Do you have good friends? What do you do with your friends? Do you like music? Do you like to sing or dance? Do you like sports? What makes you happy? What do you do when you are out of school? What do you do to help your families? See, I have so many questions. Please write back to tell me your stories.

Thank you and hope you have a new school year.

Regards,
Indy

    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.
