Mission Statement
To enhance literacy rates and help today’s children prepare themselves to achieve life-long economic well being by providing them with socio-economic support for their education and academic excellence, particularly to those that are underprivileged.
Description
KNEF focuses on providing scholarships and bursaries to both students who demonstrate sheer academic brilliance and students who are both bright but needy and those that are simply overburdened by the weight of poverty or other misfortunes. We supplement our scholarships and bursaries with educational supplies to students, families and schools in order to better support education in the Techiman Municipality and Techiman North District of the Brong Ahafo Region of Ghana. Our scholarship, bursary and educational supplies programs have been funding children’s school fees and children’s learning resources since 2007.
In effect, we work to empower and motivate children to recognize and pursue their potentials in life through education.
KNEF also consults the community to work towards finding alternative solutions that help bring positive results in the community.
