“What I value most in life is education. I wanted to study and Xavier Project gave me the opportunity to go to school. They paid my tuition fees, my school fees, and also provided shopping for me to have a comfortable life in school.”
Emmanuel Kwigenga, 19, is Rwandese. Xavier Project has sponsored him throughout his secondary school education in Nairobi. In December, he completed his O-Levels with top grades. Thanks to his strong academic performance and his fine athleticism in running he has received a joint scholarships. We are proud to announce that Emmanuel has been chosen as a Wien International Scholar and will be attending Brandeis University (Boston, USA) in Autumn 2019.
Emmanuel is an exceptional student but he’s not the only one who deserves this opportunity.
