Project Details

Starfish Africa currently sponsors 38 kids like David at 11 of the best high schools in Kenya. A donation of $1,000 USD will cover all the necessary fees for David’s education for one year. Importantly, S.A. board members cover all the administrative fees related to S.A., so 100% of a sponsorship donation would go directly to David’s educational needs.

In Kenya, students have to pay for high school, and some of them – even though very talented – cannot afford it. S.A.finds and supports students who are qualified to and who want to attend school but cannot cover the associated costs on their own.. S.A.’s sponsorships are overseen and monitored by its Kenyan field officer, who ensures satisfactory performance. Additionally, students are given leadership and vocational training throughout their four years in S.A.’s program. The $1,000 USD outlined in this request will allow David to continue in the S.A. program instead of dropping out of high school. This sponsorship will do more than simply pay David’s school fees – it will equip and empower him to make a difference in Kenya in the future.
