About Me

I am the founder of PEWA CARE HUMANITARIAN (PCH), a dream I’ve had since Grade 7. Growing up in a poor background and losing my mother when I was only six months old, my cousins and I were raised by my grandmother on her small pension. My grandmother’s passion for helping others inspired me to follow this path. I’ve always wanted to work with organizations like UNICEF and other humanitarian groups. PCH is still in its early stages, but by 2025, I plan to expand and run full-time projects in rural areas. These include addressing period poverty in schools, providing psychological support to students and communities, career guidance, and helping unemployed graduates support schoolchildren in remote villages who lack access to the internet and essential services. We also aim to donate humanitarian supplies, ensure every child has access to basic healthcare and education, and create job opportunities. I’ve even found a location to build a kindergarten, computer science classroom, and literacy training center for adults in a village. I am now seeking assistance to fund a three-month unpaid internship in South Africa to gain experience and knowledge about managing a successful NGO. This internship is crucial for equipping me with the skills to make my dream a reality. Your support can help transform lives and make a lasting impact. Together, we can achieve this. Thank you for your kindness and support. Love and light.
