Student story

The story of Amos

It began with Amos. He was able to go to school, but his brother and younger sister were not. His family could not pay another set of school fees.

His courage opened our eyes. Amos was not the only child carrying this burden. His story became the beginning of 1000 Students.

Today, Amos is preparing for higher education and drawing portraits through online courses.
