At Undugu Empowerment Project (UEP), we believe that transforming youth potential into measurable opportunity requires partnership β€” especially with the parents and community leaders who catalyze lifelong success. Over the past quarter, we have intensified efforts to engage parents, guardians, and key local stakeholders to support the UEP Higher Education Fund and expand pathways to tertiary education for deserving students.

🎯 Strategic Parent Engagement Workshops

This week, UEP hosted interactive workshops in Busia County, bringing together over 50 parents and caregivers. These sessions focused on:

Understanding the landscape of higher education financing.

Navigating scholarship requirements and application timelines.

Building collective ownership for youth career planning.

Parents, guardians, and community leaders are invited to connect with the UEP team to explore opportunities to contribute to the Higher Education Fund β€” through mentoring, advocacy, and resource mobilization.
