Funding my university education for all four years was the best thing anyone could have done for me! As a senior high school student, I dreamed of going to university, but because I lost my dad and knew my mum did not have the finances, I was never sure it would be possible. Today my dream has come true. I express my sincere gratitude to Save One Life for contributing not only to my education, but also to my life. I knew I could not let you down, and this partly influenced my success as an honors student!

I am writing to thank you for your generous scholarship. My mother placed me in an orphanage at the age of five. It was a lonely time and I had many bleeds as I was expected to perfom physically challenging chores. I had a dream to become a nurse. Without your help I would never have succeeded. Today I have a job as a graduated nurse in the cardiology department of Iqraa Hospital with a reasonable salary. Your generosity has inspired me and I hope one day I will be able to help people with hemophilia achieve their goals just as you have helped me.
