Challenge

Many boys who start school drop out because their parents cannot afford to continue to pay for their education. Aaron has no family to pay for his schooling. Aaron's mother died of Ebola last year and his father is assumed dead after abandoning the family 12 years ago. This project will provide a full scholarship for Aaron covering his tuition, books, school supplies and related school expenses.

Solution

Funds from this project will help Aaron continue his education and eventually become a computer scientist - his desired future profession. Your support will help provide all he needs to be successful in school and ensure that he completes his education.

Long-Term Impact

This project contributes to the achievement of UN Millennium goal - ensuring that youths will complete their education. It is an effective long-term investment to eradicating poverty and will help improve the quality of education and lives in general. Your support will help Aaron to finish school, become independent and self-sufficient. In his chosen future career as a computer scientist, he will also be contributing to national development.
