Following the announcement of KCPE results for 2019, candidates who satisfy the requirements here can now apply for the 2020 Equity Wings To Fly Scholarship program.
Wings To Fly is a scholarship program that was begun by the Equity Group Foundation in conjunction with the MasterCard Foundation back in 2011 to help academically able yet economically and socially marginalized youthful Kenyans.
The program has so far sponsored 16,168 students from financially challenged backgrounds to access secondary education.
Potential scholars are selected through a transparent and community-owned selection process.
District Scholarship Selection Boards (DSSBs) are constituted in all recruiting districts under the coordination of the Equity Bank branch in the locality.
Students who rank in the top in the Kenya Certificate of Primary Education examinations are identified and screened based on factors of social and economic vulnerability.
