I am in Form 1 studying at Kijabe Girls High School. I am currently the class monitor and my work is to maintain order, communicate with teachers, and represent the class. My favorite subjects are Chemistry, Biology, and Physics. because they are fascinated by the natural world and how it works. Exploring biology, chemistry, and physics can provide a deep understanding of the universe, from the smallest cells to the vast cosmos.

I aspire to be a pediatrician because, ever since I was little, I’ve been fascinated by doctors and how they help people get better. I especially love seeing kids smile and feel better after a visit to the doctor. I want to be a pediatrician to help kids grow healthy and happy, just like my role model, Dr. Benjamin Spock. I’ll be able to teach their parents how to keep them safe and healthy,

Reagan’s Passion for Math and Medicine

My name is Reagan, I’m 13 years old and currently in 8th grade at Ndurarua Primary School. I have a passion for swimming, dancing, and playing soccer. Among my favorite subjects are Math, Science, and Agriculture.

Sponsor Education & Healthcare

As a junior math teacher for my peers, I felt honored when our teacher selected me for this role. I devote much of my free time to helping my friends with mathematics. I am passionate about sharing my knowledge and aiding others in understanding the subject.

I want to become a doctor in the future because I have a strong interest in science and a curiosity about the human body and its functions. Healthcare is the most important industry and the demand for skilled healthcare professionals is constantly increasing. There is an ever-growing need for doctors, nurses, and other medical professionals, meaning there are plenty of job opportunities in this field.

I want to travel to Kos, Greece in the future. The birthplace of Hippocrates, the father of medicine, must be on every doctor’s bucket list of travel destinations. This island is approximately 112 square miles and has ancient monuments, beautiful beaches, and a rich history. The Asklepion sanatorium, built in the 4th century, is the most renowned site in Kos, featuring thermal baths and an intricate piping system that ensures a steady supply of clean spring water.

Ngong Road Children’s Foundation has played a pivotal role in helping me achieve my goals. By providing education mentorship, and school resources, you can empower young individuals like me to reach our full potential.
