Sheila
is one of the top students in her class, performing in the top 5% of students
and scoring a 402 - sufficient for being accepted to a national high school -
on the most recent exams. Her favorite subject in school is mathematics and
she performs very well in math having scored a 94 on the maths portion of her exam. Sheila hopes to
become a lady justice when she grows up because she wants to bring fairness
and justness to the country of Kenya. Her roll model is Justice Nambuye
because she's one of the ladies in Kenya who is trying to bring justice to
the country. Outside of school, Sheila enjoys singing both in and out of
Church. Her favorite food is chicken curry and rice and she would love to
travel to the United States because she thinks it would be interesting to see
the contrast between Kenya and one of the most developed countries in the
world. Sheila has many problems at home. Her father has passed away and her
mother lives far away and hasn't had a big presense in Sheila's life for a
long time. She lives with her grandparents and 2 sisters and 1 brother. Her
grandparents are becoming elderly and weak and cannot hold jobs and therefore
have problems feeding and educating Sheila and her siblings. Her school fees
have been waived this year at Pathfinder so that she can complete primary
school, but she will not be able to attend high school if she cannot find a
sponsor. Sheila promises to work as hard as she can to acheive her goals if
she finds a sponsor and if she does not, she will continue trying to go to
school but will have to look for work also. She hopes to attend Lenana Girls High School. Sponsor Sheila
