Emmanuel Annobil is an outgoing and determined young man who has been described as a kind, confident leader. Who would have known just a few years ago, he was in Kindergarten.
Emmanuel was 12 when he came to Challenging Heights. He had no money to enroll, but because a few generous sponsors gave monthly, he was able to attend for free. He had never attended school before, so he had to enroll in kindergarten. Within the same year, he was moved up three grades!
He's now finishing in the top of his class and is a member of the Children’s Development Khazana, which teaches him financial literacy skills like savings, credit, banking, and democratic principles of cooperatives; and was recently elected secretary of the club. He says he uses the CDK to help save money for after he graduates from Challenging Heights.
We're excited to see what kind of leader Emmanuel becomes, and all because some Sponsors believed in kids like him. But there are many more waiting...
