Thanks to our faithful donors, Likoni Scholarship Fund has increased by a total of 48 new students, that is 35 Form 1 students, 12 in forms 2, 3 and 4, and 1 in University. The total number of Hatua Scholarship Fund is now 144!
The students were selected basing on their need and their academic performance. The average marks of the students selected this year is 335. This students were selected from all public schools in Likoni.
According to the Director, Gabrielle Fondiller, this increase would not have been possible without our local and international donors. “Big up to our donors, they have sacrificed to give education to these bright and needy students.” said Gabi.
“If only all our donors could see the joy of the sponsored students, the bright future they have prepared for them, they would know the great change and significance of their contribution,” she added while smiling.
The lucky students were officially welcomed to the Hatua Family on 9th February 2013. The students came together with their parents/guardian who were really grateful for their children getting an opportunity to go to secondary school through Hatua Scholarship Fund.
Hatua Likoni is ready to work with any person or organization that wants to sponsor a student or donate to the Scholarship Fund. We should put in mind that, the more we donate/sponsor, the more the Scholarship Fund grows.”We thank God for Hatua Likoni and pray that they never lack, we are very grateful that our children will now be able to study without being chased out of school for lack of school fees, thank you Hatua Likoni” said a parent at the meeting.
“We believe that an educated community makes right decisions and helps to build the country, that is why we struggle to educate our children,” said Peter Kwame, Programs Director.
