Two African females dream of education

Both girls have obtained sponsorship from Africa's Tomorrow, an organization which provides 50 percent of the funds necessary for pursuing a college education in the US. They are studying hard to take the TOEFL exam in South Africa, and are asking for assistance with the test fees, transport, and accomodation costs. Please help these girls to pursue their dream to study at a quality university and help better their communities, country, and continent.

Winny is a hard-working and engaging 17 year-old girl from Qholaqhoe, Lesotho. She comes from a rural home with no father and a mother who moved to South Africa ten years ago in search of work. Growing up, she always loved school and has a passion for English debate and drama. Her dream is to study engineering and gain the technical skills to help Lesotho in mining, water resources, or infrastructure development. She sits atop her high school class and will finish her twelfth grade year in December, with the hopes of a college education to follow.

Mamoqebelo, a 17 year-old girl from rural Lesotho, has always recognized the value in education. She is a highly motivated student and is admired by her peers. She walks over two hours each way to school and her family struggles to pay her school fees because her father passed away in 2007 from Tuberculosis. Despite all this, she remains first in her class and her number one dream is to study medicine in the US and return to Lesotho to contribute her knowledge and experiences to her community.
