Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit this JustGiving page.

This year, the Kenya UWC National Committee was informed that the scholarship to the Mahindra United World College of India (MUWCI) will only be 75%. The student who has been selected for this amazing opportunity is unable to raise the difference (which comes to about $5100) and so we're teaming up as the Kenya UWC graduate community to work towards raising the difference for this worthy cause....because we are grateful to those before us who gave us the opportunity to get to where we are now and we would like to pay it forward by helping those who come after us.

The selected student, Constanine Choneko, is 18 years old and wants to become the world's most sought out actuary. He is very passionate about Maths, Physics, food and living life to the full, despite having lost his father at the age of 8 and his mother at the age of 14. He is a very sociable young man who loves his football, reading, art and dancing. The Kenya UWC graduate community would like to help Constanine make progress towards achieving his dreams and we thank you for helping us achieve this goal.
