A few days ago, Sally graduated. šŸŽ“

Her smile says plenty. This moment has meant showing up, working hard and believing that, against the odds, something beautiful was possible.

Along the way, Sally has become many things; She is a balleršŸ˜…(literally - she loves basketball). Moments on her laptop will always include trying out graphic designs or giving in to her new fascination ā€“ data. And her heart - it calls her to mentor others - to be for someone else what this journey was for her.

Now, she can add graduate to that list, after earning her Bachelor of Science in Hospitality Management from Murang'a University of Technology.

ā€œThanks to the support I have received over the years, it has given me hope and lit a light at the end of what felt like a very long tunnel. For the first time, I could actually see a future worth working toward.ā€

That future is here, Sally. And it is only beginning.

We are so proud of you. Go be the best.

Itā€™s a calm, sunny day at the University of Nairobiā€™s Chiromo Campus. Griffins walks the halls slowly, taking it all in - the place that will become his second home for the next six years.

Today is a big day. Griffins is being admitted to study Medicine.

But he is not alone.

His mother has travelled nearly 300 miles from Busia, a rural county in western Kenya bordering Uganda, to be here - to watch her firstborn son become the first in their family to attend university.

ā€œShe had to be hereā€¦ for her firstborn son. Being with her, today, and witnessing all this is a blessing,ā€ Griffins says, smiling as he looks at his mum.

It is a simple sentence, but behind it are years of belief, sacrifice, resilience - and a journey Griffins himself once struggled to imagine.

ā€œBeing where I am today would have just been a mere dream about six years ago. If you had told me this was going to be me, honestly, I would have disagreed with you.ā€

During the COVID-19 pandemic, while schools were closed, Griffinsā€™ mum bought him a book that would change how he saw himself: Dr. Ben Carsonā€™s Think Big.
For Griffins, it became more than a book.

ā€œThat was the pivotal turning point. I started looking at myself differently.ā€
And he did.

Inspired by Dr. Carsonā€™s story, Griffins began to see beyond his circumstances and imagine what his own life could become. Today, as he begins medical school, his dream of becoming a neurosurgeon is slowly coming full circle.

Ahead lies an even bigger dream: the operating room, a career in neurosurgery, lives he may one day save - and perhaps another young person who will hear his story and begin to believe that their circumstances do not have to define how far they can go.

For Griffins, the future that once felt too big to imagine is now his to pursue. The first in his family to walk through the doors of a university. A doctor in the making. A dream that is only getting started.

The cap is on, the degree is in hand! šŸŽ“

After years of hard work, Fozia Haro is officially a graduate with a Bachelor of Education, specializing in Geography and Mathematics.

Fozia hails from Moyale, a semi arid town straddling the border with Ethiopia. A high performer since primary school, this moment represents more than a degree to her and her family, and as she says, it didn't just come easy.

"One of the biggest turning points was going through the challenging stages of my university journey - especially having to balance academics, being a student leader and of course my own personal growth. But I'm glad those experiences taught me resilience, discipline, confidence and the self belief."

Congratulations, Fozia! We are proud of you and excited for all that lies ahead.

Hello to the Halls of Justice, a new name has been added to the roll sheet.

Jabes joined EFAC eight years ago. Today, he joins the ranks of graduates, having walked across the stage at Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology (JKUAT) with a Bachelor of Laws degree in hand.
But getting here wasnā€™t always a straightforward path.

In 2022, when Jabes missed the required points to join his university of choice, he felt disappointed. This could have been a setback, but he says thanks to EFAC guidance, he still settled and now has no regrets over his choices then.

Four years later, the decision has brought him to this moment and he is already looking beyond graduation.

"I am hopeful that the world becomes a better place, for me and others. I hope my education helps alleviate human suffering by giving a voice to victims of human rights violations on both local and international platforms. I am eager to apply my theoretical knowledge and to help move justice forward."

Now, Jabes is looking ahead. His next goal is to pursue a postgraduate diploma at the Kenya School of Law, followed by a masterā€™s degree. Beyond his own career, he hopes to use his education to give a voice to victims of human rights violations and help move justice forward.

Congratulations Jabes. We are proud of you and excited to see the difference you will make.

One week.
Thatā€™s how long it has been since Mustafa walked across the graduation stage at Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology (JKUAT) with a Bachelorā€™s degree in Actuarial Science. šŸŽ“

But this moment has been more than a week in the making.

Just over eight years ago, Mustafa was a young boy growing up in the pastoral, arid county of Isiolo in northern Kenya. He had performed exceptionally well in his primary school exams and carried big dreams but circumstances could easily have written a different story - but a place at Starehe Boysā€™ Centre under an EFAC scholarship opened a door.

For the next eight years, Mustafa kept going - through high school, university, and every challenge and milestone in between.

And perhaps that is the most beautiful part of Mustafaā€™s story: the opportunity he received is one he now hopes to pass on.

ā€œBeyond career success, I hope to live out one of the values EFAC has always taught us: giving back. I hope to use what I learn, achieve and become to support others. Iā€™m excited about the future and the opportunity to make an impact along the way.ā€

Congratulations, Mustafa. Make the world a better place.

A Night of Dreams and Impact.

235 scholars, 50+ friends of EFAC, and more than 20 alumni convened under the Friday night sky, last week for the Power of One Dinner.

Truth is, what we experienced may not be put in words - a community that's ready to stick together for just that one Kenyan child who deserves a shot at seeing their dreams come true.

We laughed, we danced, we enjoyed a meal together and most importantly were inspired through the stories shared; to stick behind the mission - one child at a time.

Thank you to our event sponsors, partners and everyone who came.

Another one gowned!šŸŽ“

Life may have started out difficult in the busy slum of Mathare in Nairobi. That happens often for young people here; circumstances can make dreams feel far away. But not for Esther.

When Esther joined EFAC in 2018 through our partnership with the Kijabe Children's Education Fund (KCEF), she was a young girl full of ambition and dreams she was ready to hold on to. Years of learning and becoming, later, Esther has reached a beautiful milestone: graduating from Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology (JKUAT) with a Bachelor of Science in Biochemistry!

ā€œWhen I look back, I see how much I have grown, how far I have come, and how much farther I still have to go. A path has been paved for me, and now that small girl from Mathare slums can dare to dream big.ā€ - Esther.

And dream big she will. Congratulations Esther, go impact the world.

Wow! It has been a week already since 235 of our Form 3 students walked onto campus for the Bridge-to-Success August Camp. Time has flown, but we still have a moment to share with you how impactful our week was.

They learned who they're BECOMING.
They sharpened their DECISION MAKING.
They found their voice through COMMUNICATIONS & PERSONAL BRANDING
They planned for tomorrow with FINANCIAL LITERACY
They learned to care for themselves, fully through REPRODUCTIVE AND MENTAL HEALTH training.
They saw what's possible. CAREER DAY brought our Alumni and other professionals to campus, and our scholars got to sit with people who walked this same path before them - proof that the road ahead is real and reachable.

And because growth needs joy too - a fiery sports day, a talent night full of surprises, and a movie session rounded out the week, reminding us why community matters.

We've known 'Community' from every single scholar and alumni who have walked through doors. We've experienced it through every donor, sponsor, partner, teacher, mentor, staff who give so much to support the dreams of young Kenyans, every single day.

This Friday we celebrate "community" at the Dinner.
