We are incredibly proud to share that our Cohort 8 alumnus and student at USIU-Africa, @danny_ercy was selected as a 2026 Rhodes Scholar! Danny will be pursuing an MSc in Modelling for Global Health at the University of Oxford, based at Oriel College. 🎉 In his words: "KamiLimu gave me the confidence to aim far beyond what I once thought possible. Growing up in Burundi, I had little exposure to opportunities like the Rhodes Scholarship, and the idea of pursuing such a path once felt unimaginable. Through KamiLimu, what once seemed out of reach became something I could genuinely work toward and achieve." Specifically, Danny cited gaining holistic skills such as scholarship writing, public speaking, and responsible innovation as having been instrumental in preparing him for the application and interview processes. Congratulations, Danny!

LRT has inspired me to share one of the best gifts I've ever received. Last year's mentees @KamiLimu gifted me this hand-crafted book, illustrated thru the things I love: travel, books, songs, film, plants. Sharing just 3 out of 36 illustrations. I cherish this so much. ❤️

This workshop is suitable for industry professionals and graduates who wish to pursue graduate studies, fellowships, or are simply curious about learning this set of writing skills.

We have amazing news. 🎉 Dr. Everlyn Asiko, our Cohort 4 alumna, has just graduated with a PhD in Applied Mathematics from the University of Cape Town. In her own words: "Dr. @chao_mbogho and KamiLimu truly inspired me to pursue a PhD. I always knew I wanted to, but seeing Dr. C's journey and interacting with her showed me what that path can look like in practice. KamiLimu's lessons and success stories have consistently challenged me to push further and aim higher." @everlyn_asiko , watching you walk this path, from KamiLimu to an MSc in Mathematical Sciences to a PhD at UCT, is an absolute joy! May you continue thriving and rising.

9 years, 8 months & 6 days ago I sent out this mail. We've just launched our 10th cohort & @KamiLimu celebrates its 10th anniversary this year. I'm glad I didn't quit the many times I almost did. Now proud to say the org has outgrown me & its vision scaling across multiple hands.

We have now selected 40 mentees from 15 Kenyan universities after a rigorous 4-stage selection cycle that was supported by 60 of our alumni and mentors as essay reviewers and interviewers. This was our largest applicant pool yet, with a 72% increase in applicants compared to last year, all from 43 universities. We are glad that holistic out-of-classroom mentorship infrastructure is much sought after & needed! Congratulations to everyone selected! And thank you to our community who continue to give us strength and support. ✨

We pride ourselves in being an educational infrastructure right from the application stage. We give feedback to all the applicants on why they do not proceed to the next stage. We also share review metrics for essays & interviews to those who reach these selection stages, for their future learning. So whether or not an applicant is accepted into the program, we provide formative feedback to support skill development. ✨

The cohort 10 mentee application cycle is now closed. All applicants have received a confirmation email. We received twice as many applications compared to last year! This is evidence that structured, out-of-classroom learning for holistic skills is in high demand. With hundreds of applications in, our work is cut out for us. We look forward to selecting the next cohort of 40 who will join us in this pivotal year, when we turn 10. ✨
