The Ali Shungu foundation

Scholarship Program 2006-2007

This year we have obtained scholarships for 12 young ladies, 4 studying in private junior high school and 8 studying in public junior high schools.

Your contribution will go toward the education of a gifted, but extremely poor, young indigenous girl from one of the five communities. 

Tuition for a private education costs about $200.00 each year.  A year in Public Schools costs about $100.   Most parents can not spare the money, what with many other children to support and especially for a girl who is usually needed to work in the home.
