Hello, I’m Richard Juma, a Grade 9 student at Wema Children's Centre. I am incredibly thankful for your support, which allows me to attend school and pursue my dreams. The school provides a wonderful environment for learning and personal growth. I am passionate about the environment and hope to become an environmental scientist in the future to help protect our planet. Your kindness inspires me to work hard every day. Thank you!

    Milena was born in Santo Domingo de los Colorados, but the family moved to Quito shortly afterwards. She is the youngest member of the family. She likes studying and has found it difficult not having face-to-face lessons during the pandemic. She has particularly missed the dance classes and presentations wearing traditional Ecuadorian dress, which the school organised.
