• May 2018 Update from Anjela

  Anjela has recently completed Form 2 of secondary school and achieved a Division 1 result on her national exam – the highest that is awarded to fewer than 7% of the students who take the exam country-wide. Anjela scored 5 A’s in Chemistry, Math, English, Swahili, and Civics, 1 B is Biology, 5 C’s and 1 D in French.
  Physically, Anjela continues to do well. Her back brace has prevented her scoliosis from becoming worse and has eliminated the fear that she would soon lose her life to pressure on her heart and lungs from the scoliosis.

• October 2017 Update from Anjela

  Anjela’s scoliosis continues to be treated, principally with custom made back braces as her body changes. Without these braces and the hard work of the doctors and custom brace makers, Anjela’s spine would continue to curve and eventually press on her heart and lungs leading to an early death. Instead, her spine remains where it was almost two years ago.
  In addition, Anjela had completed 2nd semester at Sangiti secondary school with an improvement over 1st semester! She has now completed 1st semester of Form II and has achieved an average grade for the semester of “B” and places 13th out of a class of 85. We are quite pleased with Anjela’s grades this 1st semester of 2017.
  Thank you to Givology supporters for helping making it possible to stop the progression of her scoliosis.

• October 2016 Update: A Successful First Semester

  Friday, November 4, 2016 at 02:39:30 AM by Anjela Engai

  When we last updated Anjelas situation, she had been admitted to Sangiti Secondary School as a Form I student. This is a major achievement in a country where only 59% of the students are admitted to secondary school.
  Anjelas first semester at secondary has gone extremely well considering how poor her primary school educational environment was. She achieved an overall average of B+ and place 11th out of 92 students. This is a wonderful accomplishment for Anjela!
  She achieved As in Math, History, Chemistry, Geography, French, and Swahili. She achieved Bs in Civics, Biology and Agriculture, and Cs in English and Physics.
  [b]Thank you to Givology supporters for helping make Anjelas education possible![/b]

• Anjela: Now a Secondary School Student!

  Saturday, February 13, 2016 at 07:31:44 AM by Anjela Engai

  This EfforTZ student was admitted to our scholarship program in 2015. Her year started with some bad news: she was suffering from scoliosis and her life was in danger. We quickly took Anjela for treatment; now she has been plastered for a cast that will have to worn and modified annually for the next 4-5 years.
  Her first year in our scholarship was a pre-Form I program for Anjela and she completed it successfully, with an overall average grade of C and a position of 14 in her class of 49 students.
  This past month, Anjela was admitted to Sangiti Secondary School as a Form I student. This is a major achievement in a country where only 59% of the students are admitted to secondary school.
