Princess Favor, a spirited 9 year old girl, has a story that captures the heart of what the H4BF Smart Kids Program strives to achieve. As the firstborn in her family, with three younger siblings depending on her, she has always carried a sense of responsibility beyond her years. Despite her young age, Princess Favor is a Primary 4 student, a testament to her intelligence and determination. But her journey hasn’t been without challenges.
Over previous holiday periods, Princess Favor could often be seen selling goods by the roadside, helping her family make ends meet. Her days were filled with hard work, yet she carried a spark of curiosity and ambition that caught the attention of H4BF. This holiday, everything changed when she joined Cohort 3 of the H4BF Smart Kids Program.
“One day, on my way back from selling, I saw two girls who came to me in green uniforms. They gave me a paper that read ‘Smart Kids’ with beautiful pictures. Then they told me to come and join my friends and learn computer and other life skills. That’s when I knew my dream of becoming an engineer was close,”
Princess explains .
Discovering Her Talent:

The H4BF Smart Kids Program provided her with a safe space to explore her potential and introduced her to exciting new skills like basic computer literacy, coding, and creative problem solving a sparking tool to her future .
For a young girl who had never imagined herself in the world of technology, the experience was transformative. The program felt like doors opening to a new universe one filled with possibilities she hadn’t even dreamed of before.
A Journey of Growth and Transformation:
Throughout the one month and two weeks of mentorship, Princess quickly became one of the standout participants in her cohort. She worked tirelessly, overcoming moments of exhaustion and self doubt with the encouragement of her mentors.
“I remember how I used to come to H4BF tired and sleepy, and they would wake me up, telling me to concentrate on my computer. Those were challenging moments, but today I am proud of myself,”
Princess shared.
The program didn’t just teach her tech skills it helped her build confidence and dream bigger. Princess Favor, who once spent her holidays selling goods by the roadside, now envisions herself as a future innovator.
