A Special Request for Support to Our Scholarship Fund

Dear Community,

Youโ€™ve likely heard about the 24-Hour Run in our recent newsletters, and weโ€™re officially kicking off today at 2:00 PM! Our runners are ready to hit the field and complete as many laps as possible! ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ

I invite you to learn more about this community led-fundraising event in our website. Thereโ€™s still time to get involved and make a difference!๐ŸŒŸ

Together, We Run & Walk for a Scholarship!

The 24-Hour Run is not just a fun community event; itโ€™s a powerful opportunity to make an impact. Weโ€™re raising funds to give a Tanzanian student a full scholarship for the next school year. Even more excitingโ€”Shelby Davis will match every dollar raised through his Dare to Dream fund, potentially allowing us to fund a second scholarship as well!

Everyone takes part of it!

We run for a reason!

And record every lap!

Over 80% of students in the Diploma Programme at UWCEA receive a full or partial scholarship.  The variety of countries our students come from and the as socio-economic diversity is possible through contributions from generous donors within our school community and worldwide.

Just as your family is part of this unique community today, your contribution can help ensure that a future student and their family will have the same life-changing opportunity. By supporting our scholarship program, you also contribute to the UWC mission of making education a force to unite people, nations, and cultures for peace and a sustainable future.

How You Can Support:

For those who may not have been approached by a runner to sponsor them yet, we would love your helpโ€”with a direct contribution. This will helps us move closer to our goal.

Online: Donate directly through this link.

Transfering via M-Pesa: LIPA Number #5656408.
Cash: Place cash in an envelope and submit it to the Accounts Office.

Why Do We Need the Support of our Extended Community beyond Tanzania:

At UWCEA staff contribute an average of $14,400 annually, even while sponsoring their own children. We are also grateful for the support of our host families, PTA (Parents &Teachers Association)  and day studentsโ€™ parents in all our events. Now, we invite you to join this generous community that helps make our mission possible and sustains the heart of our school.

If its not possible for you today to make a donation today,  you can contribute by following our journey and help us spread the word.

Thank you for your support and generosity. Together, we can make a lasting impact on the lives of future UWC EA students!

Stay updated on all the excitement and progress on our social media channels and visiting our website.  #RunForAReason #UWCEA
