This year, I focused on excelling in physics and chemistry. I hope to become an engineer one day, and my teachers have been very encouraging. I also joined the school’s environmental club, where we promote tree planting. Thank you for believing in me!
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.

    Enoch Kisavi

    Kenya

    Enoch comes from a humble family of two and he is the first born child. His parents are unemployed and depend on casual jobs to sustain their family and thus unable to raise his secondary school fees. Despite staying home for most of the time throughout his primary education due to lack of school levies, his dream to become a mechanical engineer has kept her focused. Enoch has seen a number of people in his area struggle too much when their machines and engines break down and there is no one to help repair them. He would also like to help the needy and poor families support their children in becoming better persons in the future. His hobbies are drawing and taking photographs. He holds on to the quote that says the road to success is not straight.
