One day, a friend invited her to a graduation ceremony at Elevate, our high-tech vocational school. There, she saw peers her age celebrating their achievements and securing employment. Inspired, she decided to enroll in the graphic design course.

While studying, she opened a student account with our partner bank and saved diligently. Upon graduating, she was provided with a low-interest loan and purchased her own computer, immediately launching her freelancing career.

Today, Catherine boasts a portfolio of local and international clients. She remains committed to giving back and is now using her skills to run the media department at her community church. Additionally, she trains other young girls, empowering them to pursue careers in graphic design.

Catherine’s journey from hardship to empowerment through the Elevate program is a testament to the transformative power of education and support. Her story inspires many and showcases the profound impact of education that leads to a sustainable career.
