Our Scholarship Program

Every year, the Quickstep Basic School graduate with the highest qualifying marks receives a scholarship from Pencils 4 Kids. This scholarship often gives these exemplary students the opportunity to attend top schools in Jamaica. It is so important that we can lay down the frame work to allow these bright young minds to reach their full potential and help them fulfill their dreams.

Thanks to our generous donors we are able to provide tuition and in some cases room and board and some educational supplies. With our program we are able to help students take advantage of opportunities they might not have to means to. We are so incredibly proud of our scholarship recipients! We cannot wait to see what their futures bring.
