Campaign Story
The GPF Apostolic Missions Network Inc is creating opportunities for promising and underprivileged African children and youth through the provision of scholarship under Africa Educational Scholarship program .This program was established to address the dire need for financial educational assistance. This scholarship covers tuition and provides a stipend for books, registration, uniform and other supplies.This support is crucial as it enables children and youths to be able to stay in school and continue their education.
While financial distress is an important consideration, other factors such as resilience, demonstrated ability to overcome adversity, resourcefulness and activity participation in extra- curriculum and community activities are factored in determining one’s ranking in our selection criteria. The GPF Apostolic Missions Network Inc is seeking well rounded motivated God fearing students who have shown potential of becoming model citizens who will ultimately contribution to their communities. This Network aims for an educated nation, which will in turn lead to a progressive nation that is in a position to sustain economic growth. We hope that in the future, the students would also receive computer training.(The computers will be sent to the schools affiliated to the network through the concurrent project). Computer skills are considered an important skill in getting higher-paying jobs in Africa.
Educational & Service Components.
Beyond creating productive members of the economy, the educational component also aims to create community leaders and spark the call to serve in each sponsored student. In addition to keeping their grades up , sponsored students will have service duties to fulfill .Each recipient of a scholarship is expected to participate in a community activity or volunteer with the Quick response team to do humanitarian work that benefits the general society.
The scholarships are a means to prepare the next generation of leaders in the community. The education component should serve to prepare these students to be business or professional leaders. The Service Component should serve to prepare students to understand the importance to taking the lead in giving back and helping others.
Scholarships are very important And life changing
Think about how different your life has been because you have had access to basic education. Now imagine how the lives of many children and youth in Africa are disadvantaged because of the lack of access to this basic human right. We invite you to join us providing access and empowerment to them. Your support however little will make a difference!
