My Nonprofit Reviews

Educational Pathways International (EPI) is a nonprofit Organization that provide comprehensive scholarships for students in the universities who are gifted and needy. This organization has made it a point to put smiles on the faces of these needy and brilliant students by supporting them financially, academically, morally and socially through guidance and counselling, mentorship programs and seminars that they organize for the students.

As a beneficiary, I have had the opportunity to learn a lot from the mentorship programs and seminars that they organize for us. Some of which include, Public Speaking, How to Work in a Team, and also How to be an Entrepreneur. From this, I learnt how to create and develop my own business plans and also the qualities I need to be a good Entrepreneur. We were also thought good morals such as respecting and obeying elders, avoiding bad influence and as well as focusing on our goals and working hard towards achieving them.

Excursions are also organized periodically for us to go to places of our choice as form of recreation and socialization.

Being a beneficiary of Educational Pathways International (EPI) has brought a significant impact in my life and that of my parents as well. This scholarship has eased my burden on my parents, especially those related to my university education. This scholarship has also improved my academics tremendously. The mentorship programs organized for the beneficiaries has helped me to identify the best ways of studying. I identified that, studying in a group is one of the best way I study and also how to manage my time well in terms of studying effectively. I can boldly say it has helped me a lot. Honestly, I feel very unique among my course mates and school mates, looking at what I have learnt so far from this mentorship programs. I believe, I will be able to work effectively and actively in any field that I find myself in the job market.

As a young lady, I have dreams of helping to improve the Agricultural sector in my country, even though I still have a long way to go in achieving my goals. But I believe with the Educational Pathways International support and training I will be able to achieve this dream. My parents and I will forever be grateful to Educational Pathways International for the good done to us. Long live Educational Pathways International. Thank You.
