About
Educate! Kenya
Mission
Statement
Educate! Kenya provides impoverished students with
scholarships for secondary school education to give
them a chance to excel and become fully functional
members in the Kenyan society, and in turn, empowers
them to change the poverty they came from.
About
Kenyan Education
Primary education (grades 1-8) is free of charge to
pupils of all ages. The government, however, does
not pay for the mandatory uniform, supplies and shoes,
and many primary students need sponsorship to cover
these costs.
Secondary
schools, however, charge fees for education, supplies,
food and board. Secondary schools require boarding,
as most are far away from the students' homes.
Sponsoring
Options
Primary
school student scholarship-Cover a primary student's
uniform, shoes and daily lunches. $10 per month/ $120

All
payments, which can be tax-deductible, go to the Educate!
Kenya account, where it is directly transferred to
the school to ensure that none of the money is taken
elsewhere.
If you wish, you may send the money directly to the
school. Please contact Vivian for more information
on addresses and the best ways of transferring money.
