ECHE STEPHEN, Age 14
Eche Stephen grew up in a farming family, where hardship often meant missing out on school and feeling left behind. When his mother sent him away for a better education, he ended up working on farms instead of learning, feeling neglected and alone. Everything changed when a friend told him about Bramble. With his father’s support, Stephen joined and found encouragement, patience, and a sense of belonging for the first time. He learned to read, spell, and smile again, surrounded by caring mentors and friends who believed in him. Now, Stephen dreams of becoming a music artist and is proud of how far he’s come. With your support through this scholarship, Stephen can keep learning, growing, and working toward his dreams.
