Nianjema Scholarships Allow Orphans to Go to School
Aid for Africa is sponsoring four girls for Form 2 this year: Joyce Joseph, Suzana Juma, Amina Mwajeki and Nasrat Mrisho.
Five students are supported by TEF doners. Theresia Benard, an outstanding 3rd year student who received the highest national exams, is sustained by an German donor; Juma Kivina, supported by a USA donor, is in his fourth year of secondary school; Hussein Awadlu and Peter Mambo are assisted by a German donor; and Omary Kambangwa by English donors. We are very proud of them.
Things are really popping at Nianjema!
Nianjema student enrollment has risen to 400 (from 90 in 2001). Twenty-four teachers guide these students through our hands on and active curriculum.
