Story
Those who knows me will know that I started teaching tuition at the age of 12. Yes, I was teaching those who were 10 and 11 then. I always believed that empowering through knowledge and skills is a lifelong investment. Teach a person to fish and they will be able to improvise and survive.
I am fortunate that the company I work for,Standard Chartered Bank promotes empowering young people.
I am doing a charity running event to raise money for an initiative called Futuremakers by Standard Chartered.
The Standard Chartered Foundation focuses on tackling inequality. It promotes greater economic inclusion for disadvantaged young people from low-income households, particularly girls, women and people with visual impairments, providing opportunities to make a better future for themselves and their families. We are the lead delivery partner for Futuremakers by Standard Chartered and fund programmes in the areas of education, employability, entrepreneurship and eye health.
