Success Story
For years, Gladys Chari’s life was defined by hard labor on the family farm, where education was a dream, she never thought possible. But her unwavering desire to learn led her to the adult literacy program at ACK Mabamani Center, a decision that changed everything. Through this opportunity, Gladys learned to read, write, and take control of her future. She now manages her small business confidently, calculating profits and handling transactions independently. But the true power came when she learned to read the Bible, opening a world of personal and spiritual growth. Today, Gladys not only leads church praise sessions but also inspires her community. Her story is proof that education has the power to transform lives, to break barriers, and to unlock untapped potential.
