The 2009 Jomo Kenyatta Foundation annual scholarships award ceremony was held on 25th March, at the Company's Head Office. A total of 358 students benefited from the program, compared with 250 the previous year. The sponsorship covers the four-year secondary education course at a cost of over Kshs. 32 million.

Beneficiaries are drawn from all the regions in Kenya. It is our desire to support as many students as possible. The list of applicants has steadily grown over the years, which attests to the rising levels of poverty.

And since the sole source of revenue to fund this noble undertaking comes from the sale of books, we take this opportunity to appeal to you to buy more JKF titles. That way you will significantly be boosting our kitty, and consequently educating a student whose academic dreams would otherwise have been extinguished.

We also prevail upon the past JKF scholarship beneficiaries (Alumni) to join the newly registered Jomo Kenyatta Scholarship Beneficiaries Association (JKFSBA). Together we can build an endowment fund that will compliment the Foundation's scholarships program.
