I am a kENYAN CITIZEN aged 19 in desperate need of scholarship to pursue an undergraduate degree in law or political science. I SCORED a mean grade of B+ in my final high school exams K.C.S.E 2011. I am a total orphan from a poor background in KENYA, therefore due to lack of financial support my dreams may remain shattered unless something is done very soon. So I humbly appeal to anyone out there, be it an individual, organisation or any form of humanirian assistance geared towards education to come to my support and God will reward you abundantly. GOD BLESS YOU ALL.
