I am Ukhona Unathi Cele, from J120 KwaDabeka Township in Durban, South Africa. I am a 15-year-old girl, in Grade 10, at Star College Durban, located in Westville. I am doing eleven subjects which are Mathematics, English, Turkish, Accounting, Physical Sciences 1&2, Engineering Graphic and Design, Life Sciences, IsiZulu and Life Orientation. I also do self-study subjects (History and Business Studies), and only write exams and assignments. I was lucky to be chosen to represent my school and beloved country, South Africa, in Europe, taking part in a Worlds School Debate from the 22nd of June to the 3rd of July 2018 in Slovenia, with the sightseeing of Vienna (in Austria) and Venice (in Italy).
I’m in need of a sponsor for this opportunity of a lifetime. With this as the beginning, I see many doors opening for my University Studies and future career. I would appreciate your help in raising US $1850, excluding Visa and airfare charges. My promise to my sponsor is to excel in my academic to my best ability and make my country proud and payback by being productive and help others who have the ambition to change the situation they find themselves in (poverty), and strive to make our country a better place, change the mindset from dependency on grants to independent young girls, armed with education and creators of jobs.
Thank you for the time taken to read my profile.
Your contributions would be greatly appreciated.
