Why I need the iSTEPup Foundation
It would not be easy and possible to reach my dream of Medical Doctor without the help of iSTEPup. I come from a family of 4 and I am a second born. Father and Mother divorced when I was 10. My mother is an illiterate and jobless. In Malawi if someone is not educated, It is very difficult to find a good and secured job hence unemployment status is on higher rate. I am privileged and thank God for the tertiary education opportunity.
The other thing is that Malawian Medical Colleges are very expensive hence un affordable for poor people as such I wouldn’t be able to pay my own fees. I have been applying for available and limited scholarship opportunities but never been successful
If I complete my education and become a qualified Medical Doctor through this scholarship it would help to find a good job hence to take care of myself, family and the country as a whole.
I would also be involved in charity works especially helping those that would be struggling in their education financially as I have a good experience on this and I know the pain it induces.
It is my wish to finish education and convert a long standing dream to a reality.
