Scholarships for Girls

Beginning in the 2009/2010 school year, P4K launched its Scholarships for Girls program, offering scholarships to four girls in the CES Secondary School in Libore, and extra group tutoring for girls in the middle school. The results were outstanding, and the girls excelled in their studies and moved on to the next grade level. In the 2010-2011 school year, 17 girls are receiving scholarships in Secondary School, 40 girls are receiving group tutoring in middle school, and many orphan girls are getting additional help in the earlier grades.

Secondary School scholarships pay for books, uniforms, food allowances and most importantly, tutoring. Our aim is to encourage the girls to stay in school, give them the support they need to accomplish their goals and the opportunity, if they wish, to attend university in the future.
