We are reaching out to share the story of Emaliya Chibwabwa, a resilient Deaf student currently pursuing her degree in Special Education at Kwame Nkrumah University. Emaliya’s ultimate goal is to become a teacher for Deaf learners, providing the representation and specialized support that is so vital for Deaf education.

However, she is currently facing a serious financial hurdle that threatens her ability to continue her studies.
Emaliya needs to raise K7,700 to clear her outstanding tuition balance. This payment is required immediately so that she can sit for her promotional examinations into her second year, which are scheduled to begin on April 20th.

Without these funds, she faces the heartbreaking possibility of dropping out of her program despite her hard work and academic potential.
Any amount you can contribute will make a direct impact on Emaliya’s future and her mission to serve the community. Your generosity ensures that a talented aspiring educator stays in the classroom where she belongs. Please send your contributions to the following number:

Thank you for your kindness and for helping Emaliya achieve her dream.
