We had a workshop as scheduled on April 11th and 12th at Isibania Border Point Lodge (Kuria District) with 6 of the 8 scholars in attendance. Apart from sharing their experiences in school during the first term, and discussing their academic performance, we had 2 invited guests talk to them.
After a long period of communication between Kusoma International, the Kuria Committee, and the CDF (Constituency Development Fund — national fund that channels development resources to local electoral units), the CDF has decided to invest directly in the library project and have donated 300,000 Kenyan Shillings (approx. $3500 US dollars)
We are proud to share that all our students have surpassed the minimum grade requirement for participation in the Kusoma scholarship program. Each of the 5 current students achieved a B- or better and placed in the top 20% of their class for the third term ending in November 2013.
On September 2nd, 2013, the current scholars and Kusoma International alumni met at Sangai Mohochi’s home. Current scholars had the opportunity to share about their experiences from the 2nd term of school this year with their peers and recent alumni. The Kusoma scholars alumni also discussed the structure of their group now
