What Our Beneficiaries Say!
My name is Anjeline Auma, a student learning in YMCA VTI in Kisumu. After completing Primary school in the year 2018, I was interested in becoming a hair dresser and a beauty therapist. In January 2019, I and my mother approached Ability Africa Foundation to join their project where they support girls to train in technical courses and upon request they accepted and linked me to YMCA Vocational training Institute in Kisumu where I got an opportunity to be trained on hair dressing and beauty therapy, a course which I had admired since when I was in primary school.

Josephine lives with her parents in Nyamome village, Oruba Ragana Ward, Suna West Sub-County in Migori County. She was physically disabled from birth and not even her mother could tell the cause of her child’s disability. In December 2017, Josephine expressed interest and requested Ability Africa Foundation (AAF) to support her to join Kababu Vocational Training Institute (VTI) so that she could undertake a course of her choice. After being taken through career guidance session by the project team and Instructors of Kababu VTI, she showed much enthusiasm towards Motor Vehicle Mechanics Course which she gladly undertook.
