Renowned cardiologist Dr. Betty Gikonyo has called on corporates and university alumni to sponsor underprivileged students, emphasizing the importance of providing educational opportunities to those who cannot afford the high costs of university. Speaking at The Karen Hospital, Dr. Gikonyo highlighted the need for local support to enable talented individuals to pursue their academic aspirations. The initiative was inspired by the University of Nairobi Class of 1970, which established a scholarship fund to assist students in need. Dr. Gikonyo’s advocacy aims to encourage other organizations and professionals to contribute to the educational journey of deserving students, particularly in fields like medicine where financial barriers are prominent. Through collaborative efforts, the impact of such scholarships could be significant in shaping a brighter future for aspiring scholars.
