Help Peter fulfill his dreams!

Donation protected
This is Peter Nganga. 
I met him ten years ago in Western Kenya in an Internally Displaced Person's (IDP) Camp after his family home and entire town was destroyed in the post election violence against his ethnic group, the Kikuyu.
They had to run for their lives in the dark of night from an angry mob of armed civilians who were killing people and razing entire communities to the ground.

He and I have kept in touch over the years and he recently informed me that he had been accepted to the Business Management Program at the University of Eldoret. He has put himself through college (what we consider high school) by working any job he could find, and his parents were able to help him somewhat, but now they are aging and must put their available resources towards his younger siblings. 
Peter is an extraordinary young man, with an incredible work ethic. 

I asked him to write a few words about himself to share with you. 

"my names are peter nganga from uasin gishu county kenya , I met susan shapira at a internally displaced persons camp, after post election violence 2007-2008, we lost everything to tribal clashes that marred the whole of rift valley region. I yearned to advance my education so as to realize my dreams. I did manual jobs to offset my college  fees with help of my parents I was able to complete my diploma in business Administration. we experienced a lot of difficulties since we had to rebuild our lives a fresh we had no proper shelter for my aging parents and my younger siblings. since then I haven't been able to further my education due to hard economic times we have been experiencing ,my parents hard to focus on my younger siblings so that they access basic education. Business management has been my dream career since I was young I have obtained an admission letter from university of Eldoret (UOE)  to pursue my dream career. my major challenge has been university fees I therefore plead with any well wisher to come on my aid so that I live up to my dreams any form of assistance will be highly appreciated."

Please help me to help Peter realize his dream. 
He needs $2600 for the program, but any extra will help him pay for his books and transportation to school. 

I take full responsibility for transferring Peter whatever funds we are able to raise. 

Please give whatever you are able, and please share this on facebook, twitter, or email the link to your family and friends. 

Young men and women like Peter represent the future of Africa. 

Let's make that future bright by helping one child at a time. 

Thank you for your generosity,
