My name is Anderson, I am 18 years old, and I live with my parents and brother. My role model is Nikola Tesla a Serbian-American inventor, electrical engineer, mechanical engineer, and futurist who is best known for his contributions to the design of the modern alternating current (AC) electrical system. He also developed the Tesla coil and the induction motor.

In my free time, I enjoy drawing and IT. Drawing holds a special place in my heart as it allows me to express my imagination. I recently graduated from high school and plan to pursue electrical engineering and IT because of my skills in electrical installations and cabling.

Currently, the Ngong Road Children’s Foundation is holding a life skills training program that is truly life-changing. We are being taught how to write CVs, improve our communication skills, and learn about the latest trends in job searching, which is mind-blowing. I am excited every time I get to share these life-changing lessons with my schoolmates and friends at home.

I consider myself a confident and courageous person, and I believe I’m empathetic towards others. One of my biggest dreams is to visit the United States of America someday and hopefully meet my sponsor who has been at the forefront of my transformational journey.

Transform a life today. 

My name is Alfred, and I’m a 14-year-old boy who loves football and swimming. I live with my mom and two siblings. Since 2008, Ngong Road Children’s Foundation has become my second home. I’m in eighth grade at Statehouse Primary School, and my favorite subjects are maths and English. I also enjoy reading and my favorite book is  ‘The Visitor’ by Dean Kootz.

Going to school means more than just attending classes. It is where I have made playful, kind, and loving friends. We share moments both on and off the football field, which has helped us build a special chemistry that makes them my best friends.

I have big dreams for the future. One of my biggest dreams is to represent my country in football. However, I also aspire to become an engineer. I think engineering is a great career because it offers job stability and satisfaction. It is also exciting to build things and work with electronics.

Ngong Road Children’s Foundation has been transformative for me. I especially have benefitted from using the Elimu Hub as it has equipped me with valuable knowledge and skills in the computer world, and this has enhanced my communication and IQ skills.

Transform a life.

My name is Eliakim, and I am currently 12 years old. I live with my parents and five siblings. My hobbies are football, video games, and acrobatics. I joined the Ngong Road Children’s Foundation in 2021 and am presently studying at State House Primary School in grade seven.

My favorite subjects are mathematics and English, and during my free time, I enjoy reading novels. “The Time Traveler’s Wife” is my favorite book. I look up to Messi and Ronaldo, inspired by my passion for football. Spending time with my funny, caring, and loving friends is something I cherish.

When I grow up, my dream is to become a pilot and build a house for my mum. At the Elimu Hub, I have the chance to explore computers, play educative games with friends, and learn something new every visit. The Elimu Hub library introduces me to new and interesting books.

Join us in supporting and transforming bright and talented children’s lives like Eliakim’s through the Ngong Road Children’s Foundation. Your contribution can make a real difference in providing education, mentorship, and a brighter future for these children. Together,

My name is Jennifer and I’m a 19-year-old with big dreams and a passion for helping others.  I have been a part of the Ngong Road Children’s Foundation since 2010 and I currently live with my aunt. In my free time, I love to read novels, play netball, and try out new recipes.

I’ve always had a deep desire to help others, so I want to pursue a career in law and criminology. I want to work on cases that are often ignored and gain more insight into solving puzzling cases. Being able to complete my high school education at Ruthimitu Girls High School last year was a great joy for me, and I am looking forward to joining a reputable University this year and starting my law course.

In my free time, I regularly visit the children’s home where I volunteer and help out. I also love attending the Saturday program and volunteering. My years in school have taught me valuable skills such as problem-solving, effective communication, and decision-making, which I intend to practice in my future career.

In a few years, I see myself as a respected figure in the community, working as a lawyer to help those in need. I strongly believe that my unwavering determination and kind heart will positively impact the lives of many. I am grateful to my sponsor and the NRCF fraternity for making it possible for me to get to these academic heights.

Transform a life today.
