The Dorcas Oyugi Scholarship Fund is a give-back initiative by the former Principal of WISER, Madam Dorcas, as she celebrates her 14 years of service to WISER. During this period the girls’ enrollment at WISER grew from 30 – 240 students annually with alumni base of 370 who gained rare opportunity to thrive.

Dorcas Oyugi Scholarship fund for the Girls of Promise is set to target girls that demonstrate high potential in academics and leadership skills. The fund will support tuition fee for 30 girls through raising KES 3.1 million-which is approximately $20,700.

In addition to honoring Madame Dorcas, we’d like to give a nod to all of the female heroes in our lives. With your donation to WISER this holiday season, we ask that you dedicate your contribution to a special woman who has made a difference in your life-or in the lives of others. With your dedication you will receive a beautiful commemorative certificate to share as a gift, in addition to a card thanking your hero for the role that she has played in your life. She will also be featured on a banner that will be hung at the school so that your hero can serve as inspiration to our girls.

When making a donation, please make sure that you contact [email protected] with why you have selected your hero and her address.

Your hero can be anyone-and we encourage WISER Alumni and those who have visited the WISER campus to consider a woman they were inspired by while in Kenya-we’ll make sure they receive a dedication as well.
