I set a goal at the beginning of the year to improve my grades, and I am proud to say I have made great progress in mathematics and science. I also joined the soccer team, which has taught me teamwork and discipline. Your support means the world to me!
Greetings! My name is Benjamin Simiyu, and I am a Form 4 student. Your assistance has provided me with the opportunity to grow both academically and personally. I enjoy learning new things every day and hope to inspire others by becoming a teacher one day. I want to give back to my community by helping young students pursue their dreams, just as you have helped me pursue mine. Thank you for your continued support!

    Nohemi

    Peru

    Nohemi is from the small rural community Socma in the Sacred Valley Region of Peru. Growing up it was difficult for her family to meet their basic needs. This made it challenging for her to prioritize her studies; nevertheless, she was persistent and found the support she needed for secondary education through scholarship programs. "La alegria y las ganas son los que guian nuestro camino para el exito. "Happiness and motivation guide our path to success." In the future, she would like to use her knowledge and experience in order to help develop a sustainable tourism program for Socma. She is very proud of her beautiful community and hopes to share her culture with others in a way that allows for responsible social development.

    Farhan

    Somalia

    Farhan comes from a nomadic family, which includes his mother, two grandmothers, two grandfathers, five sisters, and nine brothers. Being from a nomadic family, Farhan is especially excited to have earned a scholarship to study at our school and have the opportunity to improve his and his family’s future. Farhan’s biggest accomplishment is learning English and continuing to improve his language abilities. When he first arrived at school, he had trouble understanding English, but he now feels comfortable learning in English. Now that he is comfortable with English, he enjoys helping his peers who are having trouble learn English so that they can do better in school. In the future, Farhan hopes to be a School Headmaster so that he can help other students learn.
