STORY of Patience Mitutu

My name is Patience Mitutu, a Child Protection Officer/Counsellor & am thrilled to share my journey with AOTB, an organization that has been a significant part of my life for over a year now. As a passionate advocate for education and community development, I was drawn to AOTB’s mission to empower young people in Africa through sports, education, and mentorship. Through my involvement with the organization, I have had the privilege of working with an incredible team, inspiring young minds, and witnessing firsthand the transformative power of education and sports. My connection at AOTB has not only shaped my perspective but also fuelled my desire to make a meaningful impact in the world."

My thrilling news is that after months of hard work and dedication, I am honoured to announce that I have been sponsored to pursue my Masters' degree at Cavendish University in Zambia. This is a dream come true, and I can't wait to embark on this new chapter.

Through this opportunity, I hope to inspire and encourage others, just as AOTB has inspired & empowered me.

" I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to each and every one of you for your unwavering support and encouragement. Your belief in me and my dreams has meant the world, and I am honoured to have you as part of my journey. Thank you, Patience"
