Child of the Week

Dorice Nyangweso

This week’s spotlighted child is Dorice Nyangweso.  Dorice is seventeen years old.  She resides at Holly House and attends Waddington High School:

My name is Dorice Nyangweso Otieko.  I was born on January 7, 1999.  I was born by both parents who were jobless.  Due to their situation of joblessness, I faced many challenges in my primary education.  I perservered all the challenges and worked hard to attain my goals. I managed to get 354 marks in my KCPE exams.

Lack of finances forced me to stay home as the other children were joining secondary school.  I had wanted to continue with my education but I was now losing hope.  I never knew if I would go to secondary school.

One day, as I was quiet sitting under the shade, a strange man walked into our compound.  He told me to prepare myself to go to school.  I thanked God for that. By good luck I found myself in Lorna Waddington.

Here in Holly House I’m happy going on well with my education.  I work hard in my education to achieve my goals.  I would like to explore many countries and help the helpless children in different countries. 

I would be happy if you sponsor me in education to achieve my goals since my parents are jobless.  I will strive and make sure I achieve my dreams and accomplish my missions in the future.  May God fill you with many blessings.
