Founded in 2013 Kama Scholars Foundation has operated in the Simbu Province of PNG to support rural families, living on $1 a day by providing education, healthcare and drinking water. Over 2000 students have been enrolled in classes, 76 of them have subsequently received scholarships for secondary education and 85% of scholarships were awarded to women, who are often the last choice among children for a family to send to school. In addition KSF provides scholarships for disabled students and supports the only disability school in Simbu Province with computers, giving access to 120 disabled students. KSF introduced computer learning technology to remote village schools of over 500 students - it is the first in the country to teach and graduate students with basic computing literacy.
KSF’s work doesn’t stop with education; the foundation has also been a strong supporter of local health projects. Over 10,300 people have received health care, and 500 had received clean drinking water as a direct result of KSF’s initiatives.
