## Activities

**Objects:** EAST AFRICAN SPONSORSHIP TRUST WORKS TO ADVANCE THE EDUCATION OF GIFTED OR TALENTED YOUNG STUDENTS IN TANZANIA AND KENYA WHO ARE UNABLE TO AFFORD GOOD QUALITY EDUCATION, BY RAISING FUNDS AND PROVIDING GRANTS AS EDUCATIONAL SCHOLARSHIPS FOR THESE STUDENTS SO THAT THEY CAN COMPLETE THEIR SCHOOLING AND GO ON TO A SELECTION OF UNIVERSITIES AROUND THE WORLD.

**Activities:** East African Sponsorship Trust recognises that a quality education can make a huge difference to a young person&#x27;s success in life and this in turn can have a positive impact on raising their family out of poverty. As a result, we raise money to sponsor promising East African students through a good school or university.
