Benson Maina Muthama
Benson is an only child. His parents were not financially stable and as a result could not provide for his basic needs. He was extremely malnourished and weak when MCF rescued him and provided food and medical care to restore his health. Benson is very smart in school and enjoys playing soccer. After studying German with an international teacher at MCF, he has joined university where he is studying Industrial Chemistry.

Mully students who score C+ or higher on the Grade 12 KCSE exam qualify for a four-year university program in Kenya. These students have successfully applied through the Kenya University and Colleges Central Placement Service (KUCCPS) and obtained a coveted university placement. The cost for a Mully student to attend university is $5,000 per year and includes the cost of tuition, room and board, laptop, school supplies and transportation. This is an elite opportunity for a select group of people who have the resources to truly make a life changing difference in the life of a child who once had no hope. Could that be you?
