Education is a powerful tool that can break barriers and uplift communities. However, many children in rural Kenya do not have access to quality education and must rely on the chance of a scholarship as the only means to attend high school or tertiary institutions.
Every year, the Lewa Education Programme receives hundreds of scholarship applications, but we are only able to accept a fraction of these deserving students.With your support, we can change this. Your contribution can unlock the potential of hundreds more young Kenyans, transforming individual lives and uplifting entire communities.
Our Response
Through our Scholarship Programme, we hope to turn the tide by providing underprivileged children with access to a quality education, transforming their lives and those of their community.
As a trusted local resource for the communities surrounding Lewa, we provides new students with scholarships each year. Since its inception, the program has seen over 1,000 graduates from high school and tertiary institutions.
