In the words of the Dalai Lama, ‘’the prime purpose of us humans in this life is to help other people, and if you cannot help them, at least do not hurt them'.
I have always wanted to be a social service provider for as long as far back as I can remember. To say nothing of, I have been, on numerous occasions, tasked with the responsibility of taking care of countless patients. Also, I have been engaging in environmental cleanups since way back in high school. I feel that I will be able to care for more people in my country with the opportunity your scholarship will offer and that makes me exuberant about my future.
Hungarian Universities offer quality education that will enable me to accomplish my goals of universal healthcare and achieving global sustainability. The reason why I have chosen this programme owes to the fact that I have always had a desire to make healthcare affordable to everyone, with or without a healthcare cover in all countries, especially here in Kenya.
First and foremost, I want to give back to the communities that struggle to get medical assistance and every other day to sustain a family as compared to privileged groups. I want to establish a medical facility that will be free and will provide medical assistance that is affordable to everyone regardless of status. This will include free or low-priced medicine, nutrition checkups and free consultations. Likewise, I have the intention of creating a program that will assist patients financially in cases of surgeries and getting translators in scenarios where the patients neither speak nor understand English in order to ease the burden of language barrier and facilitate proper communication between patients and doctors.
Lastly, I want to create internship opportunities for medical practitioners around the country by establishing an NGO (a Non-Profit Organization). More remote areas will be reached by allowing the practitioners to travel to isolated communities around the country and the world. Similarly, offering nutritional education and support in remote areas will help contribute to the massive physical development of children to ensure the alleviation of poverty in severely-affected areas.
In recent years, I have acquired life-saving skills as I have been a volunteer at St. John’s for over six years, from February 2014 to date. In addition to that, I have been awarded certification in AIESEC Leadership Development Experience through a Global Volunteer opportunity tackling the sustainable development goal quality education that I successfully completed on August 15th 2019 after a period of about 6 weeks at a United Nation’s summit held in Brazil.

I come from a family of four. This carries a lot of responsibilities as I am the oldest and the one they look up to. In other words, I want to be the best example I can be to the younger ones coming after me, whether family, relatives or friends.
There are three things that are important to me. Firstly, family, whose meaning may differ from one person to the next, but for me, life is all about my family. Secondly, being successful at achieving my goals of bringing about universal health care. Last but not least, leaving a worthy legacy. As my parents always said, it is more fulfilling to do something that can help others who cannot be able to repay you, more than anything else for profit. Consequently, I keep this in my mind every day to help me in my quest to becoming a better person in this world.
To that end, making my family so proud and showing them their sacrifice was all worth it, would be a much-welcomed achievement. My sincere hope is that people around me and everywhere else will no longer have to experience suffering, poverty and homelessness. This is why, to me, success is important as it will enable me to have a career that I love and will aid me in financially assisting my family members.
Having said that, I would love to become someone who makes an impact on the lives of everyone in this vast world. I am neither looking for fame nor glory, but I want to be more than a statistical binary digit during my lifetime. I find myself unwilling to accept the status quo that things should remain the way they are, that I can change the negatives to make my immediate environment better in terms of health and in line with the sustainable development goals. Moreover, I want to influence a legacy that will shape the generations after me to be better, to do better.
I became a senior officer at St. John’s in December 2018 after successfully showcasing my leadership skills to the organization for the six years I have been volunteering. This, in taurn, helps me better understands the workings of an institution and get better at interpersonal skills with my colleagues. Additionally, I am a team player as I work well with other individuals in any setting. One becomes better at communication at such levels and acquires critical problem-solving skills as well as having the adaptability to working under pressure as it is a fast-paced environment.
During the UN Global Volunteer Sustainable Development Goals’ Summit in Brazil, I taught children between the ages of nine and seventeen years about the SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals), but I realized there was a breakdown in communication due to language barrier. I was able to adapt to the situation by learning a bit of Portuguese and using Google translate in order to get the important information across. Notably, this helped me understand that preparation is key in any planning and having the right information helps in averting problems in the future, similar to my goal of improving the healthcare systems in my country.
