These scholarships are arriving just in time. Due to the dire impact of the pandemic on the Kenyan economy, many small businesses have closed in the rural area where JAMS is located, leaving families unable to pay tuition and fees for their bright, determined daughters. Yet, education remains the single most effective investment in the future for developing countries like Kenya, especially for improving the lives of women and children.

Many thanks, asante sana, for your generous support. Thank you for educating girls and transforming the world! Together, Forward Together!
