About

Nelma has a very large family who stay with different family members. Her mother is the primary breadwinner despite suffering from some form of untreated mental heath challange. Nelma is happy with the company she has at Wema but sometimes is sad thinking about the challanges her family faces. She wishes to study law. When she becomes a lawyer she hopes to relieve her mother of the burden she undergoes holding her family together and perhaps take her to the hospital. "I thank Wema for giving me the chance to study hard and help my family out of the financial problems we experience." -Sarah Nelima.

I thank the Wema community at large for the support through my high school education. This is my last year of high school. Before the break of Covid 19 that lasted for 7 months, we were going on well with our education. We had done an exam and I managed a mean grade of B-, but the long break made me take a step back. Even though my classmates continued learning through online learning, I did not have the opportunity to access it due to lack of facilities. I thank God for allowing us back to school and I am really striving hard to get to where was. I am working hard personally to achieve a good grade to achieve my goal. I would like to help children from poor background to achieve education and also help the poor in our society.

Thank you.

I would like to thank the WEMA community for giving me a chance to acquire high school education. At school, we have been culture to value good academic performance and discipline.

I have been provided with a lot of materials for studies. We have a well-equipped computer laboratory which helps to equip me with computer skills and also provides a bank to unlimited information.

We have a larger library which has more reading material that facilitates my research and further study.

I would like to become a lawyer in future and I am working hard in my humanities and languages.

I hope for your support in future so that I may achieve my goals.
