Aloyo Susan

I come from a family of 7 sisters, and I am the first in my family to receive an education. My mother sold a piece of land, greatly undervalued, to keep me in school. Your foundation has done wonders in my life. You have opened for me a door of light. Before I was not seeing but now I am.

Of 10 children, only my brother and I have been able to attend school. My father died when I was very young. At times I had to quit school in order to raise more money for tuition. I am determined to become a midwife because I want to help mothers, their babies and sick people. I hope to bring positive health outcomes to our communities. I pray that the good Lord bless you abundantly.

During my primary and secondary schooling I had to drop out many times because of the lack of money. Sometimes I had to repeat a grade when I returned. I want to become a midwife in order to help people. I thank all my guardians and especially the Family Copeland Foundation who have worked hard so that I can reach my destination of becoming a midwife.

Akello Mary

I live with my grandmother who is not well. I am an orphan because my father died when I was very young and my mother died a few years ago. I collect firewood to stay in school. Thank you for the great support you are giving me so that I can move to the next level in becoming a midwife who does her job with joy and love.  

Alezuyo Agnes

My parents are peasant farmers. My father is alive but my mother passed away a few years ago. Thank you to the Family Copeland Foundation for providing me with a scholarship so that I could become a Certificated Midwife. Thank you again for supporting me with another scholarship so that I could get more education and receive my Diploma in Midwifery. I am very grateful for everything you have done for me and my family. I have learned many things that help to make me a very good midwife helping those in my community.
