Meet Mwamuli: A life in Transformation

Growing up as an orphan is not easy. Beyond the material needs, each one of us needs love and affection from people we can trust and rely on every and any time.

Mwamuli is a class six student at Chemichemi la Tumaini School. He lost his parents at a tender age and was left in the care of his maternal aunt. Life wasn’t easy for Mwamuli since the aunt sent much of her time in police custody on different charges. To meet his basic needs, Mwamuli would have to move from one relative to another as a mode of survival.

While staying with one of his aunts, Mwamuli was introduced and admitted as a student at the school. At the school he found new friends and a family that appreciated him and held him closer. At TPT, he found brothers, sisters, mothers and fathers who were ready to help him achieve his goals.

At the school, Mwamuli has been able to perfect his drama skills and above all he has learned how to read and write. His grades have also improved and he is always one of the students topping his class during exams. He enjoys the holiday clubs and camps which he says are his favourite times of the year.
