A Journey of Transformation & Triumph~Poni Sylvia Graduates!

We are thrilled to share the inspiring success story of Poni Sylvia, one of our sponsored students, who officially graduated on August 8, 2025, with a degree in Law from Mount Kenya University—a dream she once thought impossible.

In her own words, Sylvia reflected on this journey:
“My transformation and education journey began when Caroline Lamb came into our lives as a true angel of light. She met me in the village of Liwolo, where I could not speak English and could only express myself through smiles. Yet, she saw in me a bright future I did not know existed.

Through CRESS, Caroline connected me with sponsors in the UK. My first sponsors, Elizabeth and Nicolas, took me from the village to a modern private school in Mukono, Uganda. From that moment, my dreams and vision began to take shape. It was then that I first dreamed of becoming a lawyer.

Later, by God’s perfect will, Pippa Gold became my sponsor — a loving, kind, and generous woman of God. Through CRESS, I have experienced God’s love in the most tangible ways. Today, I stand as a graduate in Law — a milestone made possible only by the grace of God and my sponsors’ support.”

We celebrate Sylvia as a resource to her community and country. Her story is a living testimony that when opportunity meets determination, transformation happens.

Congratulations, Sylvia!
