"My name is Josephine, and I was one of the 50 students awarded a scholarship in 2024. I come from a family that struggles to meet basic needs, so paying for school was always a challenge. When I was selected for the scholarship, I felt like a huge weight was lifted off my shoulders. The scholarship has not only covered my tuition fees but has also given me access to mentorship, which has helped me focus on my studies without worrying about how to pay for school. I am currently in my second year, studying accounting, and I am determined to graduate and start my own business. The support I've received has been life-changing, and I can't wait to give back to my community once I achieve my goals."
This quarter, our scholarship program has made a meaningful impact by supporting 50 students in 2024, helping them overcome financial barriers and pursue their academic goals. Each student received tuition support, learning materials, and mentorship to guide them through their educational journey. In addition to the scholarship benefits, these students have gained valuable skills that will empower them to succeed both academically and professionally.
We hope to add additionally 15 students to our scholarship program. Will support 1 with only $ 10 a month you can become one of our monthly donors.
