The 10-year program, announced last fall, has partnerships with six U.S. universities/colleges, three Canadian universities and universities in Ghana, Costa Rica and Lebanon.

Winsome Toroitich

Winsome Toroitich and Dennis Korir persisted in their pursuit of a U.S. education by applying to universities for a second year. They both were admitted to St. Lawrence University (New York) where they will join EaSEP’s Wesley Kirui, currently a freshman. Although never an official member of EaSEP, Dennis availed himself of a chance to join the 2011 group mid-session for tutoring and help with school selection. Winsome and Dennis both tutored EaSEP students last year.
