Greetings! My name is Mary Nyongesa, and I am a Grade 9 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!

    Elijah Musilu

    Kenya

    Elijah is the fourth born in a family of five. Their father neglected the family and left his mother the burden of providing for the family. The mother lost her business last year due to Covid-19 and now does casual jobs to support two of her daughters in secondary school. At home Elijah could not study well due to lack of reliable source of light. He used to wake up very early to make it to school in order to utilize the electricity at the school. Managing time well and consulting teachers made him excel in his studies. He aspires to be an aeronautical engineer and making new discoveries. His academic path so far has taught him that every successful person has a painful story. Elijah likes swimming.
