Long-term supporter Brian Kim believes that ‘continued education through senior secondary school and eventually through university, is the key that will eventually lift large parts of the community out of poverty’.
In 2021, he launched a scholarship scheme. Each year, the scheme supports one boy and one girl from every senior high school in the District to continue their studies for three years. This meant he funded:
Year 1: 12 students
Year 2: 24 students
Year 3: 36 students
Year 4 (2025): 48 students
He specified that the students had to come from among the poorest families, as well as being talented and hardworking.
Scholarships for University
After three years of operation, all the sponsored students on the ‘Scholarships for School’ project were qualified and eligible for university, but lacked the funds to progress through university each year. So Brian launched an appeal on their behalf.
So far, we’ve raised enough to sponsor five students through university. But many more are waiting.
