Help Onen Vincent go to college

Donation protected
Last year Chad met  a wonderful young man named Onen Vincent who was teaching a lesson in the branch he attended. Here are Chad's words: "He did a wonderful job and knew the material, but also had a humble attitude and a bright spirit.  I spoke with him afterward, and we became friends.  He told me of his small village in Uganda and serving a mission to Ghana.  I was very impressed with his desires to improve himself and his family.  I want to help him get some 'scholarships' from good people who would like to help him out.  He has worked hard to earn money and will be working when he gets to BYU-Idaho to study, but this will not be enough.  He is the type of person who is pained by having to ask others for help, and that is why I am jumping in to help him.  He is hoping to study agriculture and soil science to go back and help in Africa.  Please consider if you can help him.  
Thank you for your consideration."

Here are Onen's words:
"Hello,  My name is Onen Vincent, I am from Uganda , born and raised in the town of Gulu, in the north of the country. Both of my parents are alive , and they still support me as much as they can even though 
financially I can't rely on them at this point to further my education.
Secondly I might not be the most disadvantaged person today yet I still lack means to improve myself and as people we may all need help in some ways.
Unfortunately these are just my words to assure friends who will not know me that my intents are pure.
I wanted so much that I could start school January this year after working very hard on getting admitted, but the money I have will not be enough to cover the whole course duration.  This is why I'm reaching out to so many of good hearts out there that your contribution funding towards my education will be a great blessing to me ,that some day I can do the same to some one in need.  No matter how small you can give, it will mean much.  Thank you!"
