Success as a KMF Scholar is not defined only in academic terms. That’s just one aspect of who they are.
What matters to us is character, personal growth, and wellbeing.
Our programs cover emotional, psychosocial and mental development, empowering scholars to thrive as fully capable, whole leaders and human beings.
Program 1: KMF Scholarship
We identify, screen, select and support children from under-resourced communities – providing them with access to quality education and everything they need to excel throughout their academic journey.
Applications for the 2029 cohort of grade 8 KMF Scholars will open in early 2027.
Program 2: Youth Empowerment
Through age-specific youth empowerment initiatives we equip young people with the values, skills and mindset they need to thrive – developing self-esteem, positive decision-making, leadership, communication, problem-solving and overall character building.
Program 3: Holistic Support
We provide additional support and interventions to enhance the executive functioning and success of KMF Scholars in a way that is tailored to their individual needs and circumstances.
Program 4: Catapult Program
This program is designed to “catapult” KMF Scholars and graduates towards success after leaving school, through job shadowing, career guidance, support with subject and study choices and career mentorships.
Program 5: Alumni Development
After KMF Scholars graduate from high school, we continue to provide ongoing support services to ensure their success as young adults. They become part of KMF’s network of alumni and in turn support and uplift the next generation of Scholars.
