$20,900 raised!
By contributing more than our original goal of $20,000, generous donors have covered the remaining balance due on tuition for more than 40 students at Université Protestante au Congo. Thank you, thank you, thank you all!
2025 FUNDRAISER
for UPC students a success!
"Thanks to your support, students who have already demonstrated persistence at the university level, and have already paid a significant portion of their own tuition, can now continue their studies. These students will soon be helping to build a stronger Congo."
—Brad Bryant, Board of Directors
$20,000 goal reached!
In the week after Christmas 2024 we launched a campaign to raise $20,000 to help 60 UEA students finish paying their tuition for the term.
On January 25th, we were still $3,100 short of our goal when a generous donor came forward to fill the gap. She did this in memory of her daughter.
Now, all 60 students are covered! Thank you, thank you, thank you all!
2024 YEAR-END FUNDRAISER A SUCCESS!
Tuition supplemented for students at Université Evangélique en Afrique (UEA)—in the challenging environment of Eastern Congo
Every year at UEA many students who finish their final projects and have studied diligently are blocked from continuing their studies simply because they cannot pay the remaining balance on tuition due at the end of the year.
Relatively small tuition shortfalls per student
Last year students lacked as little as $300.
"This money we raised to top off tuitions—it was one of the most amazing and timely gifts we could have come up with. They [UEA] really felt our partnership and verbalized their thanks emphatically."
—Margaret Loewen, President of Board of Directors
"I want to thank Education Congo for this scholarship assistance… With the insecure situation in our country [eastern Congo] my parents and I were asking ourselves how we were going to pay for the balance of my tuition in order to complete my studies and receive my diploma. Thanks to you, it will be possible…"
