EDUCATIONAL SPONSORSHIP

Central Aid started in 1988 as an Educational Scholarship Scheme providing financial assistance to needy students in secondary education. It was the brain child of the Founder and General Overseer of ICGC, Rev. Dr Mensa Otabil, who from personal experience has deep compassion for the needy.

Presently, financial assistance is awarded annually to needy pre-university students of proven academic ability.

Beneficiaries are drawn from across the country irrespective of ethnicity and religious background.
