Thank you for your support! With your help, we were able to provide Cecilia (pictured above) with the financial support that she needed to attend university in Malawi. Our colleague in Malawi recently spoke with Cecilia about her first semester in school, and we are excited to share this update with you:
I talked to a very happy Cecilia. She has settled well and is loving university. She is still working on getting transferred to a nursing course, as that is her dream. Her only challenge has been not having a laptop as notes are given as soft copies and only typed assignments are accepted.* I asked her how she was doing so far with her studies and she assured me that she is studying hard, and she has been getting grades above average in all her course work. Currently she spends most of her time in the library as she is preparing for her end-of-semester exams which are commencing the second week in December.
She shared about how happy she is that she gets to learn French and math in her hospitality program. We had a brief conversation in French as she likes to practice with others, and I must say it was very impressive.
*Cecilia has since been provided with a new laptop!
