Sponsoring a Student

Public education in Kenya is free through 8th grade. After 8th grade, the families of the students must pay $300.00 each year to keep their children in school.

$300.00 is the average annual income for a Kenyan.

For this reason, many children must drop out of school to work, forfeiting their chance for a better future.

For the past year, Bryan and I have been sponsoring a student named Elizabeth.

Koins started the scholarship progrm to keep students like Elizabeth in school.

Elizabeth is at the top of her class, and has the dream of becoming a doctor.

There are many students in Mnyenzeni, (the village where Koins stays), who have dreams like Elizabeth's and who are working hard for them, but simply don't have the money.

Let's face it, if Bryan and I can fork over $300 a year, anybody can!
