Abracadabra: A Literacy Spell

The magic of a partnership between AKA, Mombasa and Concordia University in Canada is helping students across Kenya learn to read through Concordia’s ABRACADABRA early literacy software.

AKA Students Go On to Great Things

As of now, 22 members of this year’s graduating class from Mombasa have received scholarships worth a total of 2.6 million US dollars, while in Hyderabad, the first graduating class is in the midst of fielding offers from top-ranked universities in Canada, the United States and the United Kingdom and has already received offers totalling 1.5 million US dollars.

A Legacy to Live By

“Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world," (Nelson Mandela). AKA, Mombasa graduate Johnston Kirimo has taken these words to heart. Identified by the Academy as a talented student, he won a scholarship to attend the University of British Columbia’s Sauder School of Business and intends to return to Kenya to help his community.

Envisioning a Bright Future

For Taher Ezzi, starting his MBA this fall at Harvard is the culmination of a dream. Taher graduated from the Academy in Mombasa in 2008 and went on to Stanford University for a Mechanical Engineering degree and a Master’s in Management Science. He believes the Academy played a large role in getting him to this point.
