MGEF's primary goal is to provide an opportunity for economic independence to every scholarship student, and consequently reduce poverty and improve the literacy, health, and economic well-being of all Maasai.
Read about our long-term commitment to each of our students.
MGEF has supported the education of 84 Maasai girls from primary school through post-secondary education. Four have graduated from college/university. Twenty four percent are now enrolled in higher education institutions.

A donation will buy uniforms or books for students, help fund a workshop or pay tuition for a needy girl to go to school.
