Faisal Kimbugwe’s journey from Uganda to Pestalozzi and on to Berea College, USA, is a testament to where hard work can take you.
Attending school was a struggle for Faisal. During his final years of secondary school, he only attended for six weeks because his mother could not afford the school fees. Prior to that, Faisal funded most of his 7th grade by cleaning a furniture workshop during the holidays. He also used the off-cuts and the tools to make wooden crucifixes to adorn coffins at funerals.
