Students will not only benefit financially in terms of paid school fees but we also equip them with essential life and social skills to mold them into all-rounded people in society”

Fifty-five students have been awarded full high school scholarships this year with a commitment from the company to increase the numbers in coming years to meet the needs of society as witnessed through the high number of applicants.

Also speaking during the event, Ian Gichui, a former beneficiary who will be joining the university:
“I am greatly indebted to Enwealth. The program’s mentorship enabled me to stay focused on my studies instead of concentrating on the issues at home. They equipped me with the skills to become a better person and change the situation back home”.
