A success story of a student at KIFA

By George Obua | Project Leader

The success story of Mary Grace

Mary Grace (not her real name, is one such lady who joined Kole Intellectual Forum in the academic year 2026. Her story of success to join the Institute of Home Economics came as a miracle. She did not have hope of studying again, given that: when she lost one of her parents and she was living with mother. Only not until when she went to visit her cousin sister, a place about 10 kilometer from the offices of Kole Intellectual forum; that was when same came across the team of the Institute (KIFA) recruiting the students out of school within their area. It was from that point that the story of her success to learn and study at the Institute of Home Economics came about.

She happened to be among those who were interviewed, sort listed and recruited within that specific time. Today Mary is too proud of her success in that if she completes, she will be given a bright new sewing machine, a tool which she will use for the beginning of her new life.
