A new mark of manhood – the high school diploma
Meet Francis Naimodu. When he grows up, he wants to be an engineer. Already he is the go-to fixer and problem solver in his Maasai Mara community. When Francis heard that WE was preparing to open a free high school for boys in Kenya, he saw his future open wide. Three hundred and eighty-five boys applied for 33 positions. The competition was fierce. Watch what happened when Francis arrived for his interview.
