Just because you come from the slum doesn't mean you should end up as slime

~ The Late Rev. Eli Tennant always said this to motivate ghetto kids to get educated and make their mark

Raising a generation that has a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, contributes to their family, community, country and church

Established in 2013 and operated in association with the Beeston Street New Testament Church of God, the Eli Tennant Fund is driven by the firm belief in ministering to the entire person, addressing not only the financial needs of our beneficiaries but also their social & spiritual well-being.

Our scholarship beneficiaries not only have to maintain good grades, they also have to be involved in church, maintain clean disciplinary records, and participate in community service like helping the elderly with grocery shopping, laundry, or gardening.

We are indeed grateful to God for our steady progress and impact since the inception of the programme.

Join us in our mission to shape futures, empower minds, and build a community where education and spiritual growth go hand in hand.
