Sponsor a Student
About 60% of our girls rely upon Starehe Girls Centre for food, accommodation, health and educational needs. To be a substitute family and offer free education, Starehe needs funds and, for a long time, it has relied mainly on supporters to perform its mission. The bridge that enables us to create schools within a home is the Sponsorship Scheme.
Most of our needy girls owe their free places to the kindness of sponsors, whether individuals or groups, who pay the costs of the girls’ care and education and at the same, so far as they are able or wish to do so, take a personal interest in their progress.
The cost of tuition sponsorship and boarding upkeep for a girl is KES 90,000.00 per year. This amount can be affected by inflation and exchange rates at any given time sponsorships are also welcome.
Interested sponsors are provided with the case history of a girl awaiting sponsorship and are kept informed of her progress and may correspond with her (or visit her if they are in Kenya). Through the years, Starehe has experienced and witnessed these relationships transcending barriers of race and culture, space and time.
