My name is Pauline Njoroge. I grew up in Dandora, Nairobi, with so much shortcomings and struggles. Both my parents are casual workers and to be specific they are hawkers, so the amount they get is not that much but we appreciate for the little they get.
I am a first year in Kenyatta University pursuing Bachelor of Education Arts (Home Economics). The reason why I chose this career is out of passion of being a Home Economist teacher.
My vision is to help other students from humble background who are not able to continue with their studies due to lack of school fees. In future, I would like to work in universities and working around students.
The scholarship by NCCK has really impacted me in so many ways. First, it has made me interact with so many people from different backgrounds, learning a lot from their experiences. Secondly, it has really enabled me to finish me secondary education without being sent away from school due to school fees issues. Additionally, I have gained valuable knowledge through the retreats.
I would like the organization to help us in paying University school fees considering our financial backgrounds which make it difficult to pay the huge amount of school fees. I would really appreciate it if this is considered.
