Jonah, of Missions of Hope has now enrolled Kipngeno in university in Kisii Town, Kenya where he is majoring in pharmaceutical studies instead of nursing. Kipngeno is now living out his dream because he started university studies in September. But he faces great financial challenges ahead.
Kipngeno kept busy on the farm while he waited for his time to start university studies. |
If you can help this young man reach his dreams through sponsoring his education at university, please contact me. You would be changing a life for the greater good. We need to know soon whether someone can help this student continue with his education in January.

You will never know how one simple act can change someone's life. Just think, you might
be responsible for getting this story into the hands of someone who can actually help Kipngeno.
That would be awesome!
Kipngeno will get a valuable education and a chance to be lifted out of poverty. But he will also be added to the ranks of the medical profession. Kenya is greatly in need of medical personnel. According to Oxfam, in 2006, there were only 14 doctors for every 100,000 people. Compare this to Canada which has about 32,000 doctors (and almost the same number of specialists). This is about 1 doctor for every 850 people (if you don't count the specialists). In Canada we are experiencing a shortage of doctors for our needs.
Food for thought.
