Mastercard and Hatua.net - an independent UK and US registered charity working to promote education and employment among youth in Kenya and Uganda - have joined hands to empower young people with the essential skills needed to thrive in today's competitive job market.
Primary school in Kenya and Uganda is free but secondary school fees, as well as the related costs, are most often not affordable for those living in slums. This means talented students are often unable to fulfil their full potential and make a difference to their communities and the wider world by continuing their education.
