Story
Sofia Aujo is 26 years old, lives in Uganda and was raised by her grandmother after becoming an orphan. Sofia had a disability and stayed at the Budaka Cheshire Home run by local nuns. FOAG supports Budaka by paying for operations for the children. Sofia was successfully operated on and stayed at Budaka, attending a local school. It was at the home where Sofia was inspired to study nursing by Sister Leah, Head of the home and a qualified nurse.
Sofia has already completed 2 years of her 4 year course, she is dedicated and motivated. I have personally supported her so far and she is a very good communicator sending me updates. For her 3rd year studies starting in September, the cost will be £500 and between me and my friend we are looking to raise £250 each by doing the Bridgnorth Walk for the 3rd year in succession.
As a 9 year old child having her leg operation, Sofia had a dream:
"My dream has been to be a medical worker/doctor from the time I had an operation on my leg when I was 9 years old from Kumi Hospital in Eastern Uganda, I was so inspired by the way the nurses took good care of me, I said I must become one in the future so that I can help others"
