Tecla Akinyi  (Grade: 4)

Tecla is one of five kids. Her mother died when Tecla was still nursing and her father has been in a serious motorcycle accident that broke both his legs. He cannot work to provide for his family and Tecla is being raised by her stepmother who has four children of her own. This mother is working very hard for her kids but she cannot afford to send them all to school. Please help Tecla receive a quality education at Joy School. Sponsorship will bring such relief to this family and will ensure a chance for a bright future for Tecla. Tecla wants to be a teacher one day. Thank you!
