The Kenyatta Trust is a charity organization that sponsors brilliant but disadvantaged students into high school and until completion of their first degree.
Students are considered for sponsorship based on their KCPE results, extracurricular activities, and community service.
It was established on August 4, 2010, with a mission to transform the lives of young men and women in Kenya as well as to economically empower the communities from which they originate.
It engages in programs such as scholarship, mentorship, counseling, economic empowerment, and internships.
