I am a teacher working at a Community Day Secondary School. After teaching for sometime, I saw many pupils and students who have special needs not well attended to. As a result they don’t achieve and go on with their education because there are no enough teachers for special needs. Because of this, I thought of applying for a course in the Catholic University in Malawi in special needs. Fornunately I have been selected to start the course. Unfortunately, it is very difficult for me to pay for the fees at the university because of my low salary. Would you kindly help me with the scholarship so that I do this course. I can give all the details if you can contact me on our email:
May God bless You,
Stephen.

Hello. I am a Malawian girl aged 20 currently attending African Leadership Academy, a school in South Africa whose main vision is to Educate the next generation of African leaders. I won a scholarship to get into this school which runs a two year programme. I just got accepted into Smith College, a women’s college in USA. However, my family does not have the means to fully finance this education. I am a girl who is interested in Women’s rights and would like to spearhead Excellence in Women when I go back to Malawi. However, this chance is being hindered by the financial issues. I would very much appreciate help that can make my dream of becoming a strong woman leader in Malawi as well as Africa possible. I am devoted to making my dreams and visions a success and I pledge all my commitment to making all this possible, but I would like to ask for this financial help to get all this underway. I can be reached at the folllowing email address ykalaya09@alastudents.org. Your consideration and help will be highly appreciated.
