Scholarships for Girls
The initial 2 rounds of funding were in partnership with Connect To Learn, a global education initiative of The Earth Institute at Columbia University, Ericsson and Millennium Promise. With a focus on Africa, scholarships are being provided for 20 girls, covering a full four years of educational support for each recipient.
For a 3rd round of funding we are supporting the Cura Orphanage in Kenya, a project of Creative Visions Foundation. We are funding 15 Scholarships for secondary school girls. The scholarships cover costs like school fees, tutoring, uniforms, textbooks/materials, activities, transportation and boarding costs where necessary.
For Julian Lennon, the scholarship arose from two events. The first: the April 2015 passing of his mother, a woman who lived a life full of love and care for others. The second was Julian’s visit to Kenya and Ethiopia in 2014 to witness the positive effects of clean water and education initiatives funded by The White Feather Foundation.
