Sponsors needed in Kenya!
Esther, a Grade 10 student at Busiada Girls High School, walked approximately 40 kilometers from her home to the school carrying nothing more than her admission letter, hope, and an unshakable determination to pursue an education. She arrived at the school alone, believing that education was her only path to a better future.
Esther lost both of her parents at a very young age and is being raised by her elderly grandmother, who struggles to provide even the most basic necessities.
With no financial means to pay school fees, many would have expected her dream to end before it began. Instead, she chose courage over despair and made the long journey on foot to seek admission. When she arrived at school after her long journey, her determination could not be ignored and she was taken in. Today, Esther's greatest obstacle is not her ability or determination—it is the financial burden of remaining in school. Without sponsorship, this brilliant young girl risks seeing her dreams cut short despite having already overcome unimaginable challenges.
By sponsoring Esther Akumu Walobwa, you will not simply be paying school fees. You will be investing in a resilient young girl who has already proven that no distance is too great when chasing a dream. Your support will give her the opportunity to complete her education, fulfil her enormous potential, and ultimately transform not only her own life but also that of her family and community.

Esther's journey began with a 40-kilometre walk of faith. With your support, that journey can lead to a future filled with hope, dignity, and success.
