“I come from a family of a single mother with five children. My mother has been supporting us to as much as she can, though it hasn't been easy for her. I am overwhelmed and grateful for this opportunity. I chose to study Fashion & Design as it allows me to express my creativity and bring new ideas to life. I want to contribute to sustainable fashion practices and I aspire to be a renowned designer. I love the opportunity for entrepreneurship and starting my own business. I have created lifelong friendships here and developed a professional network with mentors and industry leaders. This has been a journey of continuous learning and self-improvement."

"I cannot explain how much this opportunity has changed my life." Thank you for supporting students like Moses at the Vocational Training Institute in Gulu, Northern Uganda.: “Between the ages of 17 and 19, I was digging for rusted metal to sell as scrap to buy food. Sometimes, I went up to three days without eating. I lost hope in myself and my dreams. Then I heard about scholarship opportunities on the radio. I applied and I succeeded. I chose to study Hotel and Institutional Catering as I wanted to become a chef. I love the idea of interacting with guests and dressing in the smart uniforms. Thanks to the opportunity of a scholarship, I enjoy learning how to cook good food so we don't need to be hungry. I cannot explain how much this opportunity has changed my life. I have a dream of being an international chef. But to start I would like to own a business and help those who are suffering." (fb)
