"Vallery is appealing for help as she comes from a very humble background. Despite the challenges, her family is her inspiration. Her elder brother studies at the university while her two sisters are at the college. This means that meeting all these responsibilities for her father who has no stable income is a huge challenge. Nevertheless, her father who is a village elder in the informal settlement works his best to provide food, clothes and shelter for the family. Vallery says that she hopes to inspire her younger sister who is currently a PP1 learner and reassure the family that someday their challenges will be in the past. She is appealing for financial help in support of her education. “I will not let you down”, says Vallery."

"Ruth was born in Nyandarua County and is the first born child in the family. The family relocated to Nairobi’s Korogocho Slums when her mother died.

Ruth’s family faces financial challenges given that her father and step-mother both don’t have a stable source of income or employment.
“My dream is to be an accountant as I want to be independent and financially disciplined to support myself and my family”, says Ruth. She is appealing for financial help in support of her education. This will also relieve some worries for her and the family. Ruth promises that all efforts to support her will not be in vain as she will put her best foot forward to focus on her schooling.
