WMI has provided 345 scholars in 42 countries with scholarships
professional development and skill building. Here’s how:
WMI provides financial and social support to undergraduate students obtaining degrees in community-oriented fields, and encourages them to be the agents of change in their own communities, nations and the world.
Although our Scholars program stands at the forefront of our mission, our special interest projects play an integral role in WMI’s vision for impact. Our legacy programs include community projects in Haiti and a global literacy program.
What's Happening at WMI?
Student Scholar Prossy Alanyo of Kabale University in Uganda is in her second year as a Bachelor of Medicine and Surgery. This semester she volunteered with International Rescue Commission to serve refugees from South Sudan in the Lamwo Resettlement. Prossy was responsible for screening, diagnosing and treating patients, or referring them to major ailments. Alonyo reflected, “Patients were counseled, treated and reassured, they felt loved and cared for, it gave them hope and trust to also love and care for others”
WMI Scholarship recipient Sandrine Meltewomou Benjimen of Vanuatu has just started studying Medicine at Tbilsi State Medical University. As a young girl Benjimen lost her mother who suffered from a severe brain tumor. At that point Vanuatu had no neurosurgeon; the hospital is still lacking this specialist and others. Benjimen is determined to become a neurosurgeon, so that she can improve the health services available to her community, and she is well on her way.
Sponsor Sandrine Benjimen’s education ($1500) or donate any amount towards her education.
