Kaloki’s outstanding achievement in the 2024 KCSE, attaining a remarkable mean grade of A- (minus) as the top candidate in his secondary school and among all Jitegemee beneficiaries, is a testament to the power of personal dedication coupled with unwavering support. This quiet yet resolute young man credits his success to his own hard work, the consistent backing of Jitegemee, and the invaluable guidance of his teachers.
Kaloki’s story is one of overcoming significant odds. Raised by a single, unemployed mother, his family faced immense financial hardship, making access to basic necessities, let alone education, a constant struggle. Joining the Jitegemee family during his primary school years proved to be a turning point. His hard work in primary school culminated in a strong KCPE score of 373 marks, which paved his way to a top secondary school, where Jitegemee’s support continued to be a cornerstone of his education. With a heart set on making a difference in people’s lives, Kaloki now aims to pursue a medical degree at the university
