Dear Sponsors and Friends,
It's our prayer that you are all doing fine despite what is going on in the whole world. Please stay safe, take care of yourself and your loved ones. This too shall pass. Here is a good excerpt from a poem to cheer you up from our form 4 students "Oh! the Places You'll Go" by Dr. Seuss. Beads for Education: Oh! the Places You'll Go!

Tembea Academy 12th Grade Girls Recite

To some good news this month: two of our girls Rebecca, 11th grade and Sharline, 12th grade got admission to the 2020 Yale Young African Scholars(YYAS). They were chosen to represent Kenya among applicants from 40 countries in Africa and travel to Ghana, in West Africa, for a workshop, meet the other like minded youths who wish to make meaningful impact as young leaders on the continent and share ideas. However, due to the pandemic, they will attend an online conference. We are hopeful the situation will change before July and congratulate them for their good work. We are also very proud of our teachers for the solid education they are giving to all our girls.
