EFAC ANNOUNCES FIRST SCHOLARSHIP STUDENTS
Forty two EFAC scholarship students begin high school in 2009 thanks to your support and generousity. These girls and boys come from all over Kenya. They share two things in common. They are exceptionally needy and exceptionally qualified Many of these children are orphans, girls rescued from early marriage, children living in Internally Displaced Person's Camps, children of nomadic families or children whose parents are peasant farmers making under $1 a day. Despite these difficulties these children have excelled academically, shown strong leadership qualities, and are committed to community service. EFAC is proud to welcome these accomplished young student scholars into our scholarship program.
