Event Description

We are very excited to invite you to participate in our second annual “Very Simple” Scholarship Golf Tournament for the 8th grade students at Manna Academy in Kisumu, Kenya.

Last year we were able to raise close to $14,000 blessing 3 students with full rides for High School all four years. Manna Academy is the primary school that Our Next has been financially supporting for over 8 years. There are about 280 students in the school. 80% of the children at the academy are orphans and live with grandmothers or aunts in clay huts. It is on our hearts to help these children with their tuition for secondary school (high school). The cost is $1,090 per child per year to attend secondary.

This tournament will be in honor of George Okun who had past away in a car accident in October 2017. George was like a daddy to many of the children at Manna and was also on staff there. He was known for letting all the U.S. visitors know that life in Kisumu Kenya was ‘VERY SIMPLE’. In his honor we have named this scholarship The ‘Very Simple’ Scholarship. We know the children of Manna Academy’s future was very important to George as well.
