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.

I am a form 5 student. Before reaching A-level education, I faced difficult moments especially in school matters. It was hard for my parents to pay my school fees and other expenses. They had to depend on other relatives but they could not provide anything essential to my studies. I reached a time when gave hope but my parents encouraged me a lot. I made more effort and succeeded in joining form 5 at Lugalo Secondary School. If I can become a surgeon, it will help me to have good life and help my family and other people who face health problems but cannot afford payment for treatments. I hope to get there by making more effort in my studies. The moment that I felt proud of myself was in 2016, when I become the overall winner of essay competition in the Dar-es-Salaam region and was given lots of gifts. The happiest moment in my life was when the School Fund chose to sponsor me. I am really happy this moment because I am seeing the light of achieving my goals. Two years from now, I want to have completed my form 6 national examination and be at Muhimbili University or another big university taking the courses I need. I am thankful for this chance. I promise to help others because you helped me to meet my dreams.
