KindHeart Scholarship Program

Give a bright child in Nigeria the chance to finish school.

Brilliant students drop out every year because their families cannot pay the fees. Your gift pays for tuition, books, exam fees and a safe place to live, so talent decides a child's future, not poverty.

Why it matters

Talent is everywhere. Opportunity is not.

In much of Nigeria, only children of wealthy families can count on finishing school. Poor families pay cash for every fee, with no student loans, no financial aid and often no installment plans.

KindHeart meets each student in person, checks their need and their grades, and then pays their way, from secondary school exams to a university degree.

  • WAEC and JAMB exam fees stop many students before university even begins.
  • Many existing scholarships are lost to favoritism. Ours are need-based and transparent.
  • Public schools in rural areas lack buildings, materials and stable teaching.
