Stacy is a remarkable teen balancing academics and athletics with excellence. She is a blend of brilliance and athleticism, determined to master both the operating room and the badminton court.

From a young age, Stacy faced immense challenges. Her family could not afford basic necessities or education. However, her life changed when she joined the Ngong Road Children Foundation (NRCF). Through NRCF, Stacy gained access to quality education, mentorship, and a nurturing environment. This support helped her thrive both academically and personally.

She has a deep passion for science and consistently performs well in school. Her academic excellence is paving the way for her aspirations of becoming a future neurosurgeon.But Stacy’s talents don’t end in the classroom. She is also a skilled athlete. Recently, she won the badminton finals ,earning well-deserved recognition as a teen balancing her academics and athletics.

Stacy is a powerful reminder that feeding hope to young people brings incredible rewards. With the continued support of the Ngong Road Children’s Foundation, her future looks bright and so does the future of many others like her.
