Review for Educational Pathways International, Incline Village, NV, USA
Undoubtedly the best charity out there supporting the education of young bright and needy students in Ghana. Mr. & Mrs. Lafrance, the founders of EPI, have a heart of gold. I am a beneficiary of their scholarship scheme and all I can say is thank you for giving me a second shot at success. I now stand a better chance to impact my world! EPI in summary, gives young bright students hope and a chance to dream again! I recommend EPI to any awarding organisation or body. They rock!

Review for Educational Pathways International, Incline Village, NV, USA
I am a beneficiary of Educational Pathways International's (EPI) generosity and great work in Ghana and can only say positive things about them! I am a final year business administration student in Ghana's high flying University Ashesi College and this was made possible through the help and support of EPI. I got awarded this scholarship at the beginning of my second year and it has been an amazing journey with them through out. EPI covers my tuition and accommodation and this support has contributed enormously to the great things I have achieved in school. It has given me the second chance to excel in life by becoming the young rising African star that I am. I have been able to participate in Model UN programs, which included the World Model UN conference held in Boston in 2010. I also interned with Goldman Sachs in the UK, during the 2012 Spring Internship Program and got offered a place in their summer 2013 Internship program. Furthermore, got selected to attend the annual WISE Summits held in Doha Qatar for two conservative years, firstly as a learner and then a mentor and speaker in the second year. Additionally, I served students in the capacity of the Ashesi Student Cpuncil Welfare Chairperson in my second and third year. During my tenure in office, some of the things I did included organizing the second annual talent show dubbed Kaleidoscope, which raised funds to support students. I also sat on the board who disbursed some of these funds (from the Student Scholarship fund, set up by an Ashesi Student and managed by students) to two students to cover their tuition by $1000 each during the 2011-2012 academic year. All of these milestones would not have been possible/realized, without the assistance of EPI. They also have an office here in Ghana which serves as a great support center for beneficiaries of their scholarship program and this is just amazing. Another exciting part of the program, which is worth mentioning is the fact that Sara and Leonard Lafrance; the leadership of the program, embark on annual visits to Ghana every year to get updated and track the progress of students on the program. This demonstrates their dedication to the program and commitment to the students they support; a testament of true leadership! Just as I mentioned in my introduction, I can only but praise this nonprofit for all the outstanding work they are doing with students in Ghana, spanning Ashesi University College, Unvieristy of Ghana Legon and Kwame Nkrumah Univeristy of Science and Technology KNUST, to mention a few. This nonprofit is certainly worth noticing and I am grateful for all their suppport!
