What's your fondest memory of WAB?

Everything, WAB is just WAB.

Please share a story on how you are still making a difference today.

I'm striving to make a difference in the world, and it's a journey that began long before my current involvement with local government. My time at WAB instilled in me the importance of community and service. As a Tiger Hooper, I learned the value of teamwork, mentorship, and lifting others up. Guiding younger students, celebrating their successes, and fostering a supportive environment were incredibly rewarding experiences. Beyond the court, I actively participated in school events, understanding that even small contributions could have a significant impact. These experiences cultivated a sense of responsibility and a desire to contribute to something larger than myself.

Now, in my role within the Tanzanian government, I'm applying these lessons. I work tirelessly to help youth overcome obstacles, navigate unfair situations, and reach their full potential. Just as I once mentored fellow students, I now guide young people toward a brighter future, ensuring they have the support and resources they need to succeed.

Furthermore, I am a strong advocate for transparency and accountability within our government. I believe that open and honest governance is essential for a thriving democracy, a belief rooted in the principles of fairness and integrity I learned at WAB.

My journey from Tiger Hoops to Tanzania is a testament to the power of individual action. It's a reminder that we all have the capacity to make a difference, no matter how small. Whether it's mentoring a peer, volunteering in our community, or striving for a more just and equitable society, we can all contribute to a better world.
