Pauline

My name is Pauline, I am currently studying a bachelor of International Toursm Management at Jaramogi Oginga Odinga University of Science and Technology in Kenya. I was born in Mombasa in 2000 and attended Ganyoni Primary School until 2014. I live with my mother (Jackline), my father (Alex) as well as my two younger siblings. My family lives in Mombasa North and both of my parents are farmers. The family earns very little money from farming and my parents struggle to pay rent and school fees for the children.

I dream of becoming a lawyer, and I am aiming for a B+ in my final secondary exam results in order to achieve this dream. I have a strong desire to help innocent individuals who are convicted without a fair trial and would like to assist those who cannot afford legal fees when they are in trouble.

“Being the first born in my family, this sponsorship will go a long way in transforming our entire family” – Pauline, 2017.
