Maryam - with my research assistant

HELPING HER HOMELAND

Nigerian-born Maryam Abbakyari (pictured above, right) has been combining her knowledge of Architecture with her passion for her homeland to try and revolutionise housing in Nigeria’s poorest communities through her PhD research.

She explains how The Sir Thomas White Loan Charity’s (STWLC) Education Loan has enabled her to take on this project and how her research has changed her perspective on life.

JANE’S JOURNEY FOLLOWING CHARITY SUPPORT

Available up to £10,000 and completely interest-free, our Education Loan can open many doors when it comes to education opportunities. This applies not only for what a young person may wish to study after graduating, but also how a qualification could influence a career path. Simply put, the Education Loan could help to shape a young person’s future from their post-graduate studies right through their working life.
