About

I am a student at Makuyu Boys School, and formerly attended Love Africa Somi School. I come from a very poor background and could not manage the high school fees. As a family, we have challenges getting our basic needs met. Both of my parents are jobless and we live hand-to-mouth. If it were not for this scholarship, I would not be in school. This means a great deal to our family and reduces the burden. I am so grateful for this opportunity.

I am now in Form 2 at Makuyu High School, and have been earning good marks. It was a challenge to adapt to boarding life but I am doing well now. I am working hard towards my dream of becoming a lawyer.
