Alumni – Graduated in November 2019

“I am Rehema Sulle from Haydom, Tanzania. In 2019 I finished my studies and I am grateful for all the support I got along the way. I studied midwifery so as to help women in labour and prevent maternal deaths. I would like to persue my dream to improve maternal health in tanzania. I thank iSTEPup and hope to identify a new potential candidate with the motivation but without sufficient money to study in my country. Our country is in need of more locally educated health workers who can make a longterm change. Thanks for visiting my page!”

Jonas Rosenstok, member of the advisory board of the iSTEPup Foundation

Coordinating the support for Rehema’s study is what convinced me that the iSTEPup model works (which is also why I agreed to join the advisory board). It’s been a true pleasure linking Rehema to several sponsors who have enabled her to realise her ambitions. She’s a clearcut example of the potential that exists in rural Tanzania but that doesn’t have the means to take the first step towards realising their ambitions, i.e. getting the required education.
