Education is one of the most powerful investments we can make in the future of a nation.
Through the KCB Foundation, KCB is going beyond financial support to create lasting opportunities for young people. By investing in academically gifted A Level students from financially disadvantaged backgrounds, the Foundation is helping remove barriers that keep talented learners from reaching their full potential.
From tuition and scholastic materials to mentorship and personal development, the KCB Scholars Programme is designed to give students the support they need to stay in school, excel and become tomorrow's changemakers.
Because every bright mind deserves the opportunity to shine.

A new chapter for education in Uganda has officially begun!
The KCB Foundation Scholars Programme has officially been launched in Uganda, marking a significant investment in academically gifted A Level students from financially disadvantaged backgrounds.
The programme is designed to support bright and deserving learners who demonstrate strong academic potential but face financial barriers to accessing and completing their education.
Through comprehensive educational support, including tuition, scholastic materials, uniforms and stipends, alongside mentorship and guidance, the programme will enable selected scholars to focus on their studies, excel and pursue their ambitions.
The inaugural cohort comprises 56 students selected from eight government secondary schools across Uganda, including learners with disabilities.
This is more than a scholarship. It is an investment in talent, equal opportunity and Uganda's next generation of leaders.
