Mariam was abandoned by her parents when she was just months old. Raised by her aunt and uncle, Mariam has worked very hard to excel in her studies, not only to secure a better future, but also as a way of expressing her gratitude to them for providing for her needs and encouraging her to go to school. Another reason for her dedicated efforts was that she knew she would need to qualify for a sponsorship from Kenya Keys to continue her education beyond 8th grade.
Mariam is just one example of a bright, dedicated, hard working Kenyan student who will do anything to get an education. The donations you make to the Kenya Keys sponsorship program help keep students like Mariam in school so they can improve their minds, seek better employment opportunities, and contribute to their families and communities.
Because of the generous donations we’ve received from you over the last few months, we will be able to help dozens of secondary school students stay in school without interruption until they have graduated. And they will go on to improve the lives of their families and others in the villages. Thank you for making a donation that will change so many lives.
