Beatrice is an orphan and has no support from her remaining family. She got excellent marks on leaving Saramek Primary School and after finishing at Tengecha Girls’ High School, she had a good enough grade to get a government sponsored place at Masinde Muliro University of Science and Technology to read a Bachelor of Arts degree in education which she started in 2015 and graduated in 2019.
She is now teaching English and Swahili at a Secondary School in Kakamega but it is not well paid so we have occasionally helped her with some upkeep.
Will and Shirley visited her at her school in July 2014 and in 2016 she and some other former students met up with Will and Shirley at Saramek Primary – a reunion arranged by Stanley Mutai. Will was happy to meet her again in June 2019.
Like some of our other students, Beatrice was generously supported by an individual family through secondary school.
