Nazifah Nambogo’s story
I give all thanks to Almighty God for bringing this opportunity to connect with supporters across the world. My name is Nambogo Nazifah, I am 16 years old, and I am currently in Senior 2. In my free time, I love reading novels, focusing on my studies, and swimming.
My life changed dramatically in Primary 5 at Omuto Emmaus Primary School when my father passed away. He was my biggest encouragement, but since his death, my mother has struggled single-handedly to raise me. We live in a household where my three step-siblings receive full educational support from their father's wealthy family, while my paternal relatives offer me no assistance at all. My mother works hard as a farmer despite her own health struggles, and a few merciful well-wishers help us cover a small portion of my fees and books.
Despite these challenges, I remain deeply motivated. I worked hard in primary school and achieved 17 aggregates in Primary Seven. I do not let the difference in our family's circumstances discourage me; my primary focus is to work hard, complete my education to the very top, and build a successful future. With your sponsorship, I can achieve my dreams.
