CHEPTOO JUDITH

WITH GOD EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE

I Judith Cheptoo is 24 years old. I am from Cheptingting village in Kenoin sub-county. I hail from Bomet county.

My parents passed away in the year 2002 and 2003. When I was still in primary school. Since then I was brought up by my grandmother who is too old now and she is unable to work. She is using a wheel chair.

I joined AIC Leitein girls’ secondary school in the year 2008, my grandmother tried all her best to see that I go to high school even though she had no money to pay for my school fees. In form , third term I was sent home to bring school fees, I had to stay home for almost one month, that’s when my cousin fir well-wishers to help pay my school fees. In the year 2009 my cousin introduced me to NCCK and that’s when they paid for my school fees until I completed my secondary school education in the year 2011.

After completing my secondary education I had to stay home with my grandmother for another one year. In 2013 I applied Kabianga University for a teaching course. A harambee was done and the first semester fees was cleared. I applied for the helb loan in the same year and I was given 60,000 fir first year and I was given also 60,000 for the second year. The money was enough for me to complete my diploma on education (arts)

Currently am teaching in a primary school new my home. I am still waiting to be employed by TSC.

I thank God for bringing me up this far. I also ask God to help me get a better job. So that I may be able to pay helb loan. I also thank my sponsor (NCCK). If it was not for them to sponsor me I would have perished.
