Purity had always found solace in the pages of books. From a young age, she discovered that stories had the power to transport her to distant worlds, ignite her imagination, and offer comfort during tough times. The quiet girl with a love for words often spent her afternoons  devouring novels and poetry, with a notebook always by her side to jot down ideas that came to mind. Purity participated in the Osaide for Girls Foundation scholarship program where she was awarded the  scholarship to further her education and have the opportunity to meet other passionate young girls from around the country. I continued to write, read, and dream, knowing that with every word I wrote, i  was contributing to a world where every girl could find her voice, her strength, and her place in the world. The Osaide for Girls Foundation has recognized my potential, but I know the journey has only just begun.
