From Sponsored Child to Aspiring Advocate
From Almost Giving Up to First Grade: Ruba Comfort Moses Excelled in PLE 2025
Ruba Comfort Moses, a refugee girl from Rhino Camp, is a powerful example of how education sponsorship can transform lives. In 2025, she was among three learners supported by CRESS Africa Foundation to sit for the Primary Leaving Examinations (PLE). While all performed well, one first-grade and two second-grade pupils, Ruba's stories stand out because of the obstacles she overcame to achieve a first grade with 12 aggregates and emerged as the best overall pupil in our program.
Earlier in the year, Ruba’s academic journey was uncertain. Her mock exam results were discouraging, and limited resources threatened to derail her education. Her mother, Dusman Viola, could not afford holiday coaching or textbooks—both critical to exam preparation. Facing this challenge, she reached out to CRESS Africa Foundation for help.
The CRESS Africa Foundation responded promptly, covering Ruba’s holiday classes and providing essential learning materials. With renewed confidence and support, Ruba committed herself fully to her studies, working harder than ever before. Her determination paid off when the PLE 2025 results were released, earning her an outstanding first grade that surprised her teachers, family, and community.
Ruba credits her success to hard work and the desire to make her mother and sponsors proud. Today, she dreams of becoming a medical doctor and is preparing to join Ediofe Girls’ Secondary School in Arua. Grateful for the seven years of support from CRESS Africa Foundation, Ruba’s story reminds us that when determination meets timely support, education becomes a pathway to hope, purpose, and a brighter future.
