Ingrid Children Education Centre

My aim in the pageant is to make a positive change no matter how big or small
that may be!
At first, I hesitated about applying to be a contestant for the Face of Kenya as I had ony viewed it as a beauty pageant forgetting that there is a lot more to it than that.
   
"Change your MIND and it will change your LIFE! Sometimes we need to re-evaluate
how we're thinking to get to where we want to go!"
Now, that may seem 'far fetched' however, it helped me remember what the pageant stands for and, as Kenya is my homeland I want to take this opportunity to give back.
I believe as young men and women, we have a lot of potential to make our home a better place and a fine example of this is a show called 'Young Rich'. It presents the young and successful Kenyans who are making a positive impact in Kenya and I, would also like to be one of those people!

Regardless of whether I win or not, my goal is to fundraise for Ingrid Children Education Centre.
I strongly believe that education is a right, not a priviege and what this charity does is focuses on improving over 150 childrens lives by running a feeding program as well as; giving informal education.

Contestant 14- Natasha Wainaina

I am an undergraduate student studying International Relations at the University of Lincoln. 
Since secondary school, I have always enjoyed practical lessons and been heavily involved in performing arts; joining the youth company at my local theatre; being part of a dance team.
My main hobby is dancing as that is where my passion lays; I also enjoy reading self developing books and taking part in projects that will enable me to gain new skills. I am a visual and kinesthetic therefore, I prefer to keep active hence being the Vice-President for Lincoln Afro-Caribbean Society.

I would love to be the representative for the Face of Kenya UK because I believe that personal growth and development is important for everyone. I try and challenge myself in ways that I feel that no matter the outcome, I will have learnt something from whatever I am doing.  Having grown up in the U.K most of my life, I am grateful for the opportunities that I have had so far and take none of them for granted. However with how Africa is developing, one of my long-term goals, is to go back home and start something of my own as there are markets which are slowly emerging which makes the possibilities and opportunities endless.
