My name Metrine Chelagat, a 20 years old girl. My dream was to be a doctor to save my people from diseases.
My dream was shuttered when I dropped out of primary school due to early pregnancy. I have a 2 year baby girl.
I had lost all my hope of ever making it in life. My parents are poor and we live as squatters.
After TYSA introduced sports program late last year I was attracted and joined. It is here where I regained my lost dream. TYSA Director Mr.Gichuki Francis was so instrumental in encouraging me to participate in sports program
Am overwhelmed by how much sports has changed my life. I look even younger than my age. I am currently training as a tailor/dressmaker and fashion design at Kapenguria Youth Polytechnic courtesy of Goblalgiving family.
I hope other girls who are in my state could get more support for them to come and achieve their dreams through your support. I want to change the lives of 50 girls in my community who are affected by early pregnancies and prevent more than 3000 others who are at risk of early pregnancies.
