About

I am the oldest in our family. My father is a driver at Udzungwa. His education is standard 7. He did not go to secondary school because his parents separated and my grandmother lived like a widow. My father left school to help my grandmother. In 1999, he was employed in Udzungwa as a driver. That is the story about my father. My mother's education is standard 7, too. Because of her family's poverty, she could not continue her studies. Later, she married my father. As for me, if I get the chance of education, I will not let it go. I believe a golden chance never comes twice. I love orphans more than anything and if I become a doctor, I will help them get a better education.

    Emmaculate Mueni

    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.
