Scholarships
All our scholarships include the cost of enrollment, books, housing, and a food allowance for the school term.
Our scholarship program, which started back in 2007, has assisted 30 students with scholarships to further their education in nursing.
In 2017, we selected 13 of 22 students who came to interview for our scholarship program. Our selection is based on their high school GPA, family’s financial status, and their commitment to (upon completion of education) coming to work for the foundation for at least one year for each year of scholarship funding provided.
We are now also providing scholarships for teachers who will return to work with us in our new English language class project.
All our scholarships include the cost of enrollment, books, housing, and a food allowance for the school term.
